So R7 wins in multicore R23 (an easy win because it is 16T vs 8T and Cinebench has been a highly favorable workload for Zen muarches since launch), but ties on GB5 multicore and looses in single core R23 and GB5 and also loses in iGPU. And you quote 15W marketing label when one is a SoC and the other is an APU? Color me impressedhttps://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-apple_m1-1804-vs-amd_ryzen_7_4800u-1142
Ahead in cinebench R23 multi-core, exact same in geekbench 5, both 15 watts
From AT review, that luckily for us tested the R7-4800U:
In the overall multi-core scores, the Apple M1 is extremely impressive. On integer workloads, it still seems that AMD’s more recent Renoir-based designs beat the M1 in performance, but only in the integer workloads and at a notably higher TDP and power consumption.
Overall, Apple doesn’t just deliver a viable silicon alternative to AMD and Intel, but actually something that’s well outperforms them both in absolute performance as well as power efficiency.
The M1 undisputedly outperforms the core performance of everything Intel has to offer, and battles it with AMD’s new Zen3, winning some, losing some. And in the mobile space in particular, there doesn’t seem to be an equivalent in either ST or MT performance – at least within the same power budgets.
