The AMD Ryzen 3 1200 (not to be confused with the E1-1200 from 2012) is a quad-core desktop processor with no SMT support (4 threads only). As of mid-2017, the Ryzen 3 is the slowest quad-core desktop Ryzen CPU.
Performance
The average 1200 in our database fails to outgun the Core i7-8550U, a quad-core laptop CPU, in multi-thread benchmarks. In other words, this is a rather unimpressive chip, as of mid 2022, and the unlocked multiplier isn't enough to sweeten the deal. Find out more in our full review.
Power consumption
This Ryzen 3 series chip has a default TDP, also known as the long-term power limit, of 65 W that it is very likely to abide by, considering the modest clock speeds and the absence of an integrated GPU.
The R3 1200 is built with a 14 nm process for really low, as of mid 2023, energy efficiency.
The AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U is a mobile APU for thin and light business laptops that was announced in January 2017. Compared to the similar consumer Ryzen 5 2500U, the PRO 2500U offers additional security features and longer part availability / warranty.
It includes four Zen cores clocked at 2 to 3.6 GHz and offers 4 MB L3-Cache. The integrated graphics card is called Radeon RX Vega 8 and offers 8 CUs (512 Shaders) clocked at up to 1100 MHz. The TDP is configurable between 12 and 25 Watt (15 Watt nominal). More information on Raven Ridge can be found in our launch article.
