AMD Ryzen 7 170
The AMD Ryzen 7 170 is a processor for (gaming) laptops based of the Rembrandt Refresh generation. The R7 170 integrates all eight cores based on the Zen 3+ microarchitecture. They are clocked at 3.2 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.75 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (16 threads). The chip is manufactured in 6 nm at TSMC. The R7 170 is identical to the old Ryzen 7 7735HS from 2023 and therefore a refresh of the Ryzen 7 6800HS with 50 MHz higher boost speed and a potential higher TDP up to 54W.
The Zen 3+ is a refresh of the Zen 3 architecture and should not offer a lot of changes. The chip offers modern features, like support for USB 4 (40 Gbps), PCI-E Gen 4 and DDR5-4800MT/s or LPDDR5-6400MT/s.
Performance
The average 7735HS and therefore R7 170 in our database is in the same league as the Ryzen 5 7645HX, Ryzen 9 6900HS, Ryzen 9 6900HX, Core i5-12500H, Core i5-13500H, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned.
Thanks to its decent cooling solution and a long-term CPU power limit of 75 W, the Acer Nitro 16 AN16-41 is among the fastest laptops built around the 170 / 7735HS that we know of. It can be about 20% faster in CPU-bound workloads than the slowest system featuring the same chip in our database, as of August 2023.
The integrated GPU Radeon 680M is still one of the fastest iGPUs in 2023 and still is a very fast iGPU. It is based on the RDNA2 architecture and offers 12 CUs at up to 2.2 GHz.
Power consumption
This Ryzen 7 CPU has a specified TDP of 45 Watt and can be configured from 35 W to 54 W.
