Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The AMD Ryzen 9 8945H presents itself as a robust mobile processor. It is based on the modern Hawk Point (Zen 4) architecture. This chip is manufactured using the efficient 4-nanometer process. This enables strong performance with good energy efficiency. As a member of the high-end Ryzen 9 series, it delivers remarkable computing power.

Especially in demanding applications, it can show its strengths. In the Cinebench 2024 benchmark, the single-core test showed 106 points. The multi-core test achieved a solid 975 points here. An integrated AMD Radeon 780M graphics is also included. It provides decent visual output in everyday use. With 8 MB L2 and 16 MB L3 cache, the processor is well equipped.

A memory bandwidth of 77 GB/s supports fast data access. We see this chip as a very good solution for powerful notebooks.
