AMD Ryzen 5000U series is the next-gen processor that is giving Intel a run for their money. When Intel launched its 10^th generation notebook processors, we all thought this line-up would rule the notebook division. Well, for all its faults, Intel’s 10^th generation has been performing decently in the market, especially in the budget segment. But now that Ryzen 5000 has been launched, it’s time to enter the dragon.

Acer Swift SF314-43 has entered the list of devices that have adopted AMD’s latest processor. The devices will come powered by AMD’s Ryzen 5 5500U and promises increased performance than its previous versions. The CPU is a 6-core processor with 12-thread. It comes with a 2.10 GHz of base clock speed and 4.00 GHz of Boost clock speed.

The appearance of the Acer Swift SF314-43 on Geekbench reveals just how impressive AMD’s Ryzen 5 5500U is and the high-end performance of its iGPU. The iGPU of Ryzen 5 5500 has seven compute units and a maximum clock rate of 1.80 GHz. The Geekbench results indicate that the iGPU of Ryzen 5 5500 has an increase of 20% in clock rate over the Ryzen 5 4500U’s graphics-processing component.

Though the Acer swift laptop is targeted towards everyday usage and not for extreme gaming, with the power of Ryzen 5 5500’s iGPU, future owners of this Acer Swift laptop should be able to enjoy some light gaming sessions. But in terms of multi-tasking, the CPU is outstanding, and without a doubt, the APU will be a big hit in the Ryzen 4000 series.
