Title: Geekbench confirms that the AMD Ryzen 5 5500U is effectively a rebranded Ryzen 5 4600U
Post by: Redaktion on November 19, 2020, 17:48:23
AMD's Ryzen 5 5500U has appeared on Geekbench, confirming several aspects of the upcoming mid-range APU. The Ryzen 5 5500U is effectively a Ryzen 5 4500U with SMT enabled, or a rebranded Ryzen 5 4600U. The Ryzen 5 5500U has six cores, 8 MB of L3 cache and 3 MB of L2 cache.

Not a rebranded 4600U. I would certainly pick the 5500U out of the two if given a choice. iGPU is more powerful: 7CU at up to 1800MHz (1.6TFLOPs), vs 6CU at up to 1500MHz (1.15TFLOPs). CPU, and the whole efficiency is likely to work better too, as Lucienne should be benefiting from the latest tinkering on 7nm, and is likely to come with improved power management by updated microcode.

How confusing for the consumer. 5400 and 5600 series CPUs are Zen 3 but 5500 is Zen 2...

On the post's title you assure but in the body you say "it appears".

Not nice journalism.
