AMD Ryzen 7 5700U — Benchmarks & Specs

8 cores16 threads15W TDP

Short answer: the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U generates 18.5 tokens/sec on llama3:8b (q4_K_M) under ollama in a single cited run, per Phoronix; there are too few comparable runs on file for a median.

Bottom line: how fast is the Ryzen 7 5700U?

For local LLM inference it generates 18.5 tokens/sec running llama3:8b at q4_K_M under ollama, per Phoronix. In PassMark CPU Mark it scores 10,500–15,404 points, across two PassMark results (PassMark CPU benchmark listing, PassMark result of 2021-03-30). Across all its cores it scores 7,451–12,500 pts in Cinebench R23 multi, across two published results (Tom's Hardware, Notebookcheck).

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.

The Ryzen 7 5700U is a processor from the Zen 3 family from AMD. Key on-paper specs include 8 cores / 16 threads, boost clock of 4.3 GHz, 15W TDP. Data on this page draws on 16 synthetic benchmark results (top 10 shown), 1 community AI inference report, 4 measured game frame-rate results, compiled from PassMark, Phoronix, Notebookcheck, Tom's Hardware, GadgetVersus, Geekbench Browser, TechPowerUp, TechSpot; each table row links to its source. Read this page when shopping the Ryzen 7 5700U, comparing it against other processors in your build, or sizing it for a specific workload (gaming at 1080p/1440p/4K, synthetic benchmark scores, or local LLM inference).

Gaming Performance (measured FPS)

Average and 1% low frame rates by game, resolution, and quality preset. Bars are scaled against the fastest result on this page.

Measured gaming frame rates for the Ryzen 7 5700U by game, resolution, and quality preset. “1% low” is the frame-time floor that determines perceived smoothness. A CPU’s frame rate depends on the graphics card it was tested with, named in the Test GPU column when the source records it. Each row links to its original review or benchmark database.

AI Inference Performance

Tokens per second under each model + quantization. Higher = faster generation. Bars compare runs across the same model.

Local LLM inference throughput on the Ryzen 7 5700U, in generated tokens per second for a single request (one user's generation speed). Higher is better; each row links to the community report or benchmark database it came from.

Synthetic Benchmarks

Higher is better. Bars are scaled within each benchmark family (multi-thread, single-thread, etc.) so you can compare like-with-like at a glance.

Synthetic benchmark scores for the Ryzen 7 5700U — higher is better. Each row links to the public database the number was taken from. A benchmark listed more than once is separate published results, shown as published rather than averaged.
