Some of the latest Geekbench 4 and 5 results for the AMD Ryzen 7 4800H APU have been shared online, and once more they offer the sort of high multi-core scores you would expect from a Ryzen 4000 processor. However, the Renoir part in the Asus TUF Gaming laptop also kept up with the single-core scores for the i9-9980HK found in the Dell Precision 5540 and Apple MacBook Pro 15 2019.

This isn't mu h of a fair comparison, both the Dell and the Mac are designed to be as thin as possible and won't have anywhere near the cooling performance of the Asus.

Agreed - the Precision is essentially an XPS 15, which are well known for throttling. It would on the other hand be rather worrying if a gaming laptop had trouble keeping a 45W APU cool.


Besides this, would it be too much to ask to make a comparison table when posting stuff like this? Reading three bloated paragraphs with information spread across them is far more annoying than reading a couple of descriptive paragraphs plus a table showing the comparisons side-by-side. This might not be in line with your editorial practices, but if not, you ought to change them when you have as many "articles" covering leaks in this way. At least make the information easy to parse.

If one browses through the Geekbench 5 results for 9980hk one will find single-core scores of up to 1400 and multi-core scores of up to 8900 (posted today; a score of 8500 was posted on March 4th) . There are Precision 5540 scores of 1390/7900 as well. Therefore the title of this article is not exactly true. Note also that the machines responsible for the 8400+ scores are from Asus, which might lead one to believe that it is possible to tune not only the CPU but also the OS to perform well at Geekbench. In any case, Geekbench is one of the most pointless benchmarks around; it does not measure long-term performance but only responsiveness. In Linux for example, setting the Intel p-state driver to "powersave" (CPU performance on-demand)  will give lower results that "performance" (CPU at max frequency permanently) in Geekbench whereas any other long-term computational task will not be affected either way.

I don't even know why people are complaining about it being unfair b/c intel laptop is 5 lbs. People AMD 4800hs outperforms the 4800h and is a 3.5 lbs laptop so the comparison is unfair as in intel has more cooling Headroom. In order to make it fair the intel cpu should be put in an even smaller laptop so it can truly be a fair comparison. And c2, 8900 was an oc result and let's be real laptops don't have that kind of Headroom in the real world and it'll probably die in a minute b/c of oc power consumption killing the point of a laptop anyways. And these aren't even amd's most powerful apus that title goes to the 9 series which will easily beat the 10980hk while being half its weight and lasting 2 to 4x as long in battle life
