AMD Ryzen 7 4700U vs AMD Ryzen 7 5800HS: Comparison
Ryzen 7 4700U vs Ryzen 7 5800HS: the l3 cache difference
L3 cache is where these two genuinely part company, Ryzen 7 4700U 8 MB against Ryzen 7 5800HS 16 MB, a 50% lead for Ryzen 7 5800HS. Release year is not the same on both, 2020 on the Ryzen 7 4700U versus 2021 on the Ryzen 7 5800HS. Igpu is not the same on both, AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 on the Ryzen 7 4700U versus AMD Radeon Graphics on the Ryzen 7 5800HS. There is a split on microarchitecture as well, Zen 2, Ryzen 4000 Series "Renoir" on the Ryzen 7 4700U versus Zen 3 on the Ryzen 7 5800HS. They differ on smt enabled too, No on the Ryzen 7 4700U versus Yes on the Ryzen 7 5800HS.
Ryzen 7 4700U vs Ryzen 7 5800HS: which one fits your build
Take the Ryzen 7 4700U for ultraportable laptops wanting 8 physical cores at a lower price point than the SMT-equipped Ryzen 7 4800U. It is not the one for buyers specifically wanting maximum multi-threaded ceiling, the SMT-equipped Ryzen 7 4800U handles that better despite the same core count. Take the Ryzen 7 5800HS for thin-and-light gaming laptops wanting near-full 5800H performance in a slimmer chassis. Avoid it for buyers building around the largest, most thermally-unconstrained gaming chassis, the standard 45W 5800H may extract slightly more sustained performance there.
What Ryzen 7 4700U and Ryzen 7 5800HS have in common
Everything else lines up. Total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, integrated graphics and socket read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 5 further specifications as well.
