Details about the overclocking potential of the AMD Ryzen 7 4700G have been revealed online. The Zen 2 APU, which is reported to have a 4.4 GHz boost clock and a 65 W TDP, has been shown to reach over 4.7 GHz at 1.425 V. The APU is also thought to include an 8 CU GPU and will support SMT.

The Ryzen 7 4700G has already leaked several times over the last few months, including on 3DMark and Ashes of the Singularity benchmarks. Based on multiple sources, the Ryzen 7 4700G is an 8 core Renoir APU with a 65 W TDP. The chip not only packs a CPU, but also a GPU with 8 Compute Units (CUs) that can clock up to 2.1 GHz. Additionally, the APU can boost its CPU up to 4.4 GHz.

However, the people at ITCooker have demonstrated that the Ryzen 7 4700G can breeze past its 4.4 GHz boost clock with some overclocking. According to CPU-Z, ITCooker reached 4.765 GHz, which is an 8.29% increase over the APU's maximum clock speed. ITCooker achieved this by upping the voltage to 1.425 V, for reference. The multiplier was set to 47.75 too.

The Ryzen 7 4700G will be released alongside a host of other Renoir desktop APUs, including the Ryzen 7 4700GE and Ryzen 7 PRO 4700G. AMD is yet to make any formal announcement about Renoir desktop APUs yet, but Videocardz believes that the company is "likely to introduce" them this month.
