AMD’s Ryzen 7045 “Dragon Range” enthusiast laptop CPUs have been officially benchmarked against Intel’s 12th Gen lineup. The AMD Ryzen 7045 “Dragon Range” CPUs will target the enthusiast laptop market. It will be the red team’s first laptop lineup to include more than 8 cores and 16 threads, as well as plenty of cache in a high clock and high TDP package. There will be four CPUs in the lineup, and AMD appears to have finally shared some benchmarks that compare them to Intel’s 12th Gen “Alder Lake” chips.
AMD has released performance figures for the Ryzen 9 7945HX, Ryzen 7 7745HX, and Ryzen 5 7645HX processors.
The three CPUs were put through their paces in Cinebench R23 single and multi-threaded workloads. In comparison, AMD used Intel’s 12th Gen Alder Lake chips, both HX and H-series, to demonstrate how well their new chips perform, despite the fact that Intel has already released its high-end Raptor Lake-HX CPUs this month, which are a direct follow-up to the 12th Gen HX/H chips tested here.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX CPU outperforms the Intel Core i9-12900HX by 2% single-threaded and 52% multi-threaded. That’s 16 cores and 32 threads versus 16 cores and 24 threads previously. The Ryzen 7 7745HX is an 8-core, 16-thread chip that outperforms the Core i7-12700H by 6% single-threaded and 25% multi-threaded performance. This chip has 8 cores and 16 threads, as opposed to 14 cores and 20 threads.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX CPU is compared to the Core i9-12900HX/HK CPUs, the Ryzen 9 7845HX CPU is compared to the Core i9-12900HX, the Ryzen 7 7745HX CPU is compared to the Core i7-12800/12700 chips, and the Ryzen 5 7645HX CPU is compared to the Core i5-12600/12500 chips.
While AMD is comparing the parts to Intel’s previous-generation Alder Lake chips, the more interesting comparisons will be made when the same parts are compared to 13th-Gen CPUs, particularly the Raptor Lake-HX parts, which offer more cores, cache, and clocks than the 12th-Gen Alder Lake CPUs.
