AMD Ryzen 9 7900 vs AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX vs AMD Ryzen 5 7645HX

AMD Ryzen 9 7900

► remove from comparison AMD R9 7900

The AMD Ryzen 9 79 00 is a high-end desktop processorfrom the Raphael series with 12 cores and hyperthreading (SMT), which means it can process up to 24 threads simultaneously. Launched in early 2023, the Ryzen 9 7900 is the fastest 12-core processor with 65 watts TDP.

The Ryzen 9 7900 clocks at 3.7 GHz base clock and reaches up to 5.4 GHz on one core in Turbo mode. This is also the difference to the higher clocked Ryzen 9 7900X.

At first glance, the internal structure of the processor has not changed fundamentally. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 is still based on the chiplet design consisting of two CCD clusters, each containing a CCX with 8 cores. However, the manufacturing process has been scaled down to 5 nm, which ensures higher clock rates. There is also the IO die, which contains the memory controller and the iGPU, among other things. This is now manufactured in a 6 nm structure width.

The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 can impress in games thanks to the significantly improved IPC.

AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX

► remove from comparison AMD R9 7845HX

The AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX is a fast high-end laptop processor of the Dragon Range series. It offers 12 of the 16 cores based on the Zen 4 architecture that supports hyperthreading (24 threads). The cores clock from 3 (base) up to 5.2 GHz (single core boost). The 7845HX is the second-fastest mobile Ryzen CPU at launch and derived from the desktop Ryzen 9 7900X.

The Dragon Range series still uses a chiplet design with two CCD-clusters (each with 8 possible cores) in 5nm and an IO-die (including the memory controller and the Radeon 610M iGPU) in 6nm. The chip integrates 4x USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gbps) ports (no USB4), 28 PCIe 5.0 lanes (for GPU and SSDs) and a dual-channel DDR5-5200 memory controller.

Performance

The average 7845HX in our database is in the same league as the Core i9-13900HX, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. This is a super-fast chip, as of mid 2023; of course, your mileage may vary depending on how competent the cooling solution of your laptop is and how high the CPU power limits are.

The R9 7845HX is rated at a TDP of 55 Watt and can be configured from 45 to 75 Watt (cTDP).

AMD Ryzen 5 7645HX

► remove from comparison AMD R5 7645HX

The AMD Ryzen 5 7645HX is a fast high-end laptop processor of the Dragon Range series. It offers 6 cores based on the Zen 4 architecture that supports hyperthreading (12 threads). The cores clock from 4 (base) up to 5 GHz (single core boost).

The performance of the R5 7645HX should be significantly higher than the fastest 6-core CPU of the Ryzen 6000 mobile series the Ryzen 5 6600H. Especially single threaded performance should be very good thanks to the new Zen 4 cores and relatively high clock speeds. This means even the old Ryzen 9 6980HX (also 5 GHz, but Zen 3) should be slightly slower in single threaded workloads.

The Dragon Range series still uses a chiplet design with two CCD-clusters (each with 8 possible cores, the 7645HX only uses one CCD with 6 of the 8 cores) in 5nm and an IO-die (including the memory controller and the Radeon 610M iGPU) in 6nm. The chip integrates 4x USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gbps) ports (no USB4), 28 PCIe 5.0 lanes (for GPU and SSDs) and a dual-channel DDR5-5200 memory controller.

The R5 7645HX is rated at a TDP of 55 Watt and can be configured up to 75 Watt (cTDP).
