AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 vs AMD A12-9800

In this CPU comparison, we compare the AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 and the AMD A12-9800 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 6 core processor released in Q3/2022 with the AMD A12-9800 which has 4 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2017.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 is a 6 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.00 GHz (3.80 GHz). The processor can compute 12 threads at the same time. The AMD A12-9800 clocks with 3.80 GHz (4.20 GHz), has 4 CPU cores and can calculate 4 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 64 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16, while the AMD A12-9800 supports a maximum of 64 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 has a TDP of 15 W. The TDP of the AMD A12-9800 is 65 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The AMD Ryzen Embedded V3C16 has 19.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 6 nm. The cache of AMD A12-9800 is at 2.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 28 nm.
