Geekbench 5’s database has released the latest benchmark of AMD’s Athlon Gold PRO 4150GE APU. The AMD Athlon Gold PRO 4150GE is a low-cost APU aimed at the OEM market. Although we’ve seen it offered by Chinese 3rd party resellers, it’s not designed for DIY sales.
To begin with, the AMD Athlon Gold PRO 4150GE has 4 cores and 4 threads and is built on the Zen 2 core architecture. It has a 3.3 GHz base frequency and can turbo to 3.7 GHz. Because it’s a GE part, the processor features 4 MB of L2 cache and a 35W operational TDP. A regular ‘G’ SKU with a TDP of 50-65W may also be released.
The AMD Athlon Gold PRO 4150GE performs well in single-core and multi-core testing, scoring 1098 points in single-core and 3728 points in multi-core tests. The Alder Lake Pentium G7400, by comparison, earns 1466 points in single-core tests and 3234 points in multi-core testing.
Intel’s Alder Lake wins single-core testing but loses multi-core tests, but it’s also cheaper at roughly $65 US, compared to over $100 US for the Athlon Gold PRO. So, at least in terms of pricing, it should be competing against the Core i3-12100F, which boasts around 1700 single-core and over 6500 multi-core points.
The Athlon Gold Pro 4150GE will include integrated Vega graphics, but just three compute units that will run at 1.1-1.2 GHz. This means that the Alder Lake Iris Xe iGPU and Vega’s iGPU performance will be extremely similar. Perhaps OEM system prices would be considerably lower, but if you’re expecting to pay approximately $50 US for this chip via the DIY channel, that doesn’t appear to be the case.
