AMD Ryzen 7 4700G Renoir APU With Vega 8 GPU Is Almost As Fast As Entry-Level Discrete Graphics When Overclocked
New performance results for the AMD Ryzen 7 4700G Renoir APU have been posted which unveil its general and graphics performance capabilities in various benchmarks. The latest benchmarks come from Chiphell where a forum member has acquired an engineering sample of the said APU and tested in under various performance metrics while hinting us at its graphics prowess.
MD Ryzen 7 4700G Renoir APU Overclocked, General & Graphics Performance Capabilities Showcased Once Again
The AMD Ryzen 7 4700G Renoir APU tested is an engineering sample bearing the 100-1000000149 OPN code. While we’ve already seen samples with the final clock speeds being tested, this specific variant doesn’t feature the final clocks and runs at a 3.0 GHz base clock and a 4.0 GHz boost clock. For comparison, the Ryzen 7 4700G and the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G would officially feature clock rates of 3.6 GHz base and 4.45 GHz boost. This means that the silicon used by the leaker isn’t what we’d expect from the final models but still, the general compute and graphics capabilities are the main highlight today.
The testing was done on an AORUS B550I PRO AX motherboard with two 8 GB DDR4 sticks. The specific version is not mentioned but the DDR4 DIMMs were clocked to 4300 MHz with an Infinity Fabric link speed of 2100 MHz. We’ve already seen FCLK of 2200 MHz (DDR4-4400 MHz) in the latest benchmarks which once again points out the early design nature of this particular chip. The AMD Ryzen 7 4700G APU was overclocked to 4.3 GHz across all cores which is a 300 MHz bump over its standard operating boost clock of 4.0 GHz (single-core).
For cooling, the leaker mentions a 240mm AIO Liquid Cooler inside an ITX case and also points out the Noctua NH-D15 heatsink with liquid metal thermal paste. Both are high-end cooling solutions, even for an 8 core APU so the coolers aren’t an issue here. The user reports that to hit 4.3 GHz, he had to push
