AMD Ryzen 7 4800U vs AMD Ryzen 7 5800HS: Comparison
What is the difference between Ryzen 7 4800U and Ryzen 7 5800HS?
On l3 cache the spread is 50%, Ryzen 7 4800U 8 MB against Ryzen 7 5800HS 16 MB, so Ryzen 7 5800HS takes it. They differ on release year too, 2020 on the Ryzen 7 4800U versus 2021 on the Ryzen 7 5800HS. There is a split on igpu as well, AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics on the Ryzen 7 4800U 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 4800U versus Zen 3 on the Ryzen 7 5800HS. Base power is not the same on both, 15 W on the Ryzen 7 4800U versus 35 W on the Ryzen 7 5800HS.
Ryzen 7 4800U vs Ryzen 7 5800HS: which one fits your build
Take the Ryzen 7 4800U for thin-and-light laptops wanting genuinely exceptional 8-core, 16-thread multi-threaded performance at 15W. Avoid it for buyers wanting business manageability features, the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750U shares this silicon with added PRO features. Take the Ryzen 7 5800HS for thin-and-light gaming laptops wanting near-full 5800H performance in a slimmer chassis. It is not the one for buyers building around the largest, most thermally-unconstrained gaming chassis, the standard 45W 5800H may extract slightly more sustained performance there.
Where the two are identical
Where they agree, they agree completely, total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, total threads and integrated graphics included, so the decision does not turn on any of those. They match on 7 further specifications as well.
Frequently asked questions
Do the Ryzen 7 4800U and Ryzen 7 5800HS differ on p-core boost clock?
