AMD Ryzen 7 5700U “Lucienne” APU spotted running on HP Pavilion Laptop 15

Another day, another laptop with upcoming Ryzen 5000 APU

Well, if you thought AMD had had enough with its Ryzen 5000 series processors for desktops, then you have probably mistaken. The upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 5700U “Lucienne” APU has again been spotted, not on an Acer Aspire 5 A515 but an HP Pavilion Laptop 15-eh1xxx laptop.

A new Geekbench listing of this laptop shows that the upcoming Ryzen 7 5700U will be an 8 core, 16 thread APU with 1.8GHz base and 4.3GHz boost clock speeds, which was previously confirmed with the leak of the Acer laptop as well.

The interesting thing is the scores which are being reflected as we see there are two scores –

• Single Core: 1172, Multi Core: 6595
• Single Core: 1111, Multi Core: 6099

If you compare the score with the current Ryzen 7 4700U, its not huge because I own a laptop with that APU and my scores are something like this:

So, as we see, there’s not much improvement in the single-core score as this is basically still a Zen 2 refresh while having that extra 8 threads gives a huge boost in the multi-core score of the upcoming Ryzen 7 5700U. According to this leak, we aren’t getting any major improvement on the compute side of the APU.

Whereas if you look at the upcoming APU’s graphical side, we see a slight improvement due to higher clock speeds, and with 8 Vega Compute units instead of 7 seen on the current AMD Ryzen 7 4700U. I don’t know what AMD is planning by just doing a refresh of its Ryzen 4000U series, and I guess the other exciting Cezanne and Van Gogh APUs can actually bring something more that users will expect from AMD.

These upcoming Ryzen 5000U series APUs will be launching at the start of 2021, most probably CES 2021, and it will be a mix of Zen 2 based Lucienne APUs and Zen 3 based Cezanne APUs as per leaks till now.
