Description of the processor

The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G is an APU for Socket AM5 from AMD. This APU combines the fast Zen 4 CPU cores of the Vermeer architecture with a fairly fast and integrated graphics unit. The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G has eight CPU cores that are all the same size. AMD does not use a hybrid core structure made up of P-cores and E-cores, as Intel often uses in its newer processors.

The 8 CPU cores of the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G clock at 4.2 GHz. Using the processors turbo mode, this clock frequency can be temporarily increased to up to 4.7 GHz (load on all CPU cores) or even up to 5.1 GHz in certain situations. The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G is even overclockable and can be easily adjusted and optimized using the AMD Ryzen Master software from AMD.

The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G uses the AMD Radeon 780M as integrated graphics, which was previously reserved for the faster AMD mobile processors (Phoenix). The graphics unit clocks at up to 2.9 GHz and achieves a performance of 3,100 points in the 3DMark TimeSpy benchmark. This is enough to play more modern games smoothly in resolutions of up to 1080p (Full HD).

Also new in the AM5 socket is the integration of AMD Ryzen AI, AMDs AI hardware acceleration. In the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, this reaches up to 16 TOPS (trillion operations per second) and can lead to a significant improvement in software that supports AI acceleration.

Up to 256 GB of RAM can be operated with the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, and up to DDR5-5200 can officially be installed. When using at least two RAM modules (dual-channel mode), a memory bandwidth of up to 83.2 GB/s is achieved. Even faster RAM can be used outside of the manufacturers specifications, which also benefits the performance of the integrated graphics.
