AMD Ryzen 5 5600U
The AMD Ryzen 5 5600U , not to be confused with Intel's Core i7-5600U, is a fairly fast Cezanne family processor designed for use in thinner, lighter laptops. The R5 5600U integrates six of the eight cores based on the Zen 3 microarchitecture and is the third fastest U-series processor at launch. The cores are clocked at 2.3 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.2 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT for a total of 12 threads. The chip is manufactured on the modern 7 nm TSMC process.
The new Zen 3 microarchitecture offers a significantly higher IPC (instructions per clock) compared to Zen 2. For desktop processors AMD claims 19 percent on average and in applications reviews showed around 12% gains at the same clock speed.
In addition to the six CPU cores, the APU also integrates a Radeon RX Vega 7 integrated graphics card with 7 CUs at up to 1800 MHz. The dual channel memory controller supports DDR4-3200 and energy efficient LPDDR4-4266 RAM. Furthermore, 16 MB level 3 cache (up from 8 MB at the 4800U) can be found on the chip.
Performance
The Ryzen 5 is a solid upper mid-range CPU, considerong its multi-thread benchmark scores nearly match those of Intel Core i5-11400H (the latter being a much more power-hungry hexa-core processor designed for use in gaming laptops). While not nearly as fast as 12th gen Alder Lake-P chips, this Ryzen will happily satisfy the needs of the vast majority of users.
Power consumption
This Ryzen 5 has a default TDP of 15 W, a value that laptop manufacturers are allowed to change to anything between 10 W and 25 W with clock speeds and performance changing accordingly as a result. Choosing the lowest value possible will allow for a passively cooled design. Most laptop manufacturers, however, will go for a higher value to achieve a higher performance level.
AMD Ryzen 5 5600U is built with TSMC's 7 nm process for very decent, as of mid-2022, energy efficiency.
