Geekbench 6 (Single-Core)

Geekbench 6 is a benchmark for modern computers, notebooks and smartphones. What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The single-core benchmark only evaluates the performance of the fastest CPU core, the number of CPU cores in a processor is irrelevant here.

V-Ray CPU-Render Benchmark

V-Ray is a 3D rendering software from the manufacturer Chaos for designers and artists. Unlike many other render engines, V-Ray is capable of so-called hybrid rendering, in which the CPU and GPU work together at the same time.

However, the CPU benchmark we used (CPU Render Mode) only uses the system's processor. The working memory used plays a major role in the V-Ray benchmark. For our benchmarks we use the fastest RAM standard approved by the manufacturer (without overclocking).

Due to the high compatibility of V-Ray (including Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, SketchUp, Unreal Engine and Blender), it is a frequently used software. With V-Ray, for example, photorealistic images can be rendered that laypeople cannot distinguish from normal photos.

News and articles for the AMD Ryzen 5 4500


The AMD Ryzen 5 4500 is a six-core desktop processor clocked at 3.6 GHz. It supports AMDs SMT technology (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) and can therefore process two threads simultaneously per CPU core. Therefore, the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 supports up to 12 threads at the same time.

Although the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 was only introduced in the second quarter of 2022, it was not based on the "Zen 3" architecture that was current at the time, but on the predecessor architecture "Zen 2". AMD may be using partially defective chips here, e.g. from the APUs of the XBox Series S/X or the Playstation 5. These rely on 8 CPU cores with 16 threads (Zen 2).

The AMD Ryzen 5 4500 is manufactured in 7 nm and fits into the AM4 socket. The level 2 cache is 3 MB, the level 3 cache 8 MB. Since it is an APU (with deactivated internal graphics), the processor is based on AMDs "Renoir" platform.

This can connect a maximum of 32 GB DDR4-3200 memory to the system in two memory channels. In addition, only 12 PCIe 3.0 lines are provided, so that current graphics cards, for example, can only be connected with 8 lines (normal: 16). This can result in minor performance losses.

The RAM bandwidth is 51.2 GB per second with two DDR4-3200 modules. AMD specifies the TDP of the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 as 65 watts, but a configuration at 45 watts is also possible. In general, the 4 and 6 core Zen processors are relatively energy efficient.

The performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 4500 is roughly on par with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor and is therefore sufficient to play most games quite smoothly. The processors performance is also easily sufficient for most applications. The AMD Ryzen 5 4500 offers itself as a cheap solution in a smaller system.
