To introduce a preposterously high GPU limit, we used an Nvidia RTX 3090 graphics card, ensuring that in these tests at least, all performance data is CPU-limited. In fact, all of the Zen 2 chips we have seem to boost to circa 4.0GHz in gaming loads.Īll tests are customised for high CPU utilisation, and we're typically benching at 1080p or upscaled 1080p using Nvidia DLSS (though we added 1440p variants too). This is basically a desktop version of the 'Renoir' chip found in Ryzen 4000 laptops and it's noteworthy in that it accurately reflects the 4800S in terms of its cache hierarcy, its core and thread counts and seemingly, even its clock speeds too. However, it does have a radically larger cache, so we also added a second processor to the mix: the Ryzen G. This is a six-core, 12-thread processor from AMD's Zen 2 generation - so it has much in common with the 4800S from an architectural standpoint. What we needed to do was to put the CPU into context of its peers, so to begin, we also benched the Ryzen 5 3600. A cursory glance at the page reveals that it's routinely possible for today's mainstream chips to double the performance of the 4800S.
What we found was not exactly surprising - today's tech is based around Ryzen 7000 and Intel 12th-gen and 13th-gen Core processors working with fast DDR5 memory.
For our first foray into AMD 4800S Desktop Kit testing, we decided to plug in the hardware into our existing CPU database, offering up as much competitive data as we could against today's market of processors.
