AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX

The AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX is an 8-core, 16-thread mobile processor from the AMD 7000 series, built around the Zen 4 architecture with the Dragon Range codename. It is manufactured by TSMC on a 5 nm process, with a 3.60 GHz base clock, a 5.10 GHz boost clock, and a 55 W TDP. In the benchmark set, the processor records an average benchmark score of 31,402 and ranks at the 87th percentile of all CPUs.

Benchmark Performance

The aggregate data places the 7745HX in a tight cluster around its nearest rivals. It shows a 0% delta compared with the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, a 0.3% advantage over the Intel Core i7-12650HX, a 0.3% advantage over the Intel Core i5-13600H, and a 0.3% deficit against the AMD Ryzen 9 5980HX. A 0.3% gap is small enough that individual applications can reorder the grouping; the 87th percentile ranking is a more stable summary of overall position.

Multi-threaded performance is the strongest part of the result set. Cinebench R23 multicore reaches 27,693, Cinebench R20 multicore is 11,631, and Geekbench multicore lands at 12,827. PassMark multithread is 32,581. These scores are consistent with an 8-core/16-thread design that can hold its place in threaded productivity workloads.

Single-thread performance is also competitive. Cinebench R23 single-core scores 3,909, Geekbench single-core scores 2,630, and PassMark single-thread scores 3,947. The 3DMark single-thread result is 1,023, while 2-thread and 4-thread results are 1,997 and 3,815. Scaling continues through 8 threads at 6,604 and reaches 7,993 at 16 threads. The max-thread score of 7,967 closely matches the 16-thread score, which reinforces that the processing ceiling for this CPU-bound workload is the 16-thread configuration.

In PassMark sub-tests, the processor scores 22,967 in data encryption, 28,966 in extended instructions, 105,773 in integer math, 64,297 in floating-point math, 383,322 in data compression, and 44,474 in random string sorting. The strong integer and floating-point numbers support mixed productivity and general compute, while the compression and sorting results fit file-heavy and data-oriented workflows.

Platform and Compatibility

The 7745HX uses AMD Socket FL1 and is classified in the mobile market segment. It belongs to the Zen 4 architecture with the Dragon Range codename and is fabricated at TSMC on a 5 nm process. The CPU has 8 cores and 16 threads, with 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache.

Memory support is DDR5 over a dual-channel interface. The memory bandwidth is 83.2 GB/s, and ECC memory support is enabled. For connectivity, the processor provides PCIe Gen 5 with 28 Lanes available from the CPU only. It also includes a Radeon 610M integrated GPU, allowing systems to run display and basic graphics workloads without a discrete GPU.

The multiplier is unlocked, so the processor can be tuned in systems that expose firmware control. Production status is Active, and the part number is 100-000000721. Because this is a mobile CPU, platform compatibility is defined by the laptop and its AMD Socket FL1 implementation; the upgrade path is tied to the system manufacturer’s support for this socket rather than an interchangeable desktop motherboard.

Who Should Consider It

Gaming-oriented laptops can use the 3DMark scaling pattern as a reference. The 2-thread score of 1,997 and 4-thread score of 3,815 indicate solid lightly threaded performance, while the 8-thread score of 6,604 and 16-thread score of 7,993 show room for multi-threaded game engines. The 3,947 PassMark single-thread score and 3,909 Cinebench R23 single-core score support responsive single-thread behavior, and the 5.10 GHz boost clock gives the CPU headroom for latency-sensitive tasks.

Content creation workloads that scale across 16 threads are well matched to this part. Cinebench R23 multicore of 27,693 and Geekbench multicore of 12,827 indicate strong throughput for rendering and encoding-style tasks. PassMark integer math of 105,773 and floating-point math of 64,297 cover sustained numeric compute, and the extended-instructions score of 28,966 points to good support for modern instruction-heavy libraries.

Office and productivity users will find the data-oriented PassMark scores useful. Data compression of 383,322 and random string sorting of 44,474 suggest strong archival and file-management performance. The single-thread PassMark score of 3,947 and 3DMark 2-thread score of 1,997 indicate fast response for ordinary single-application use, while the 83.2 GB/s DDR5 memory bandwidth helps data movement across multiple open applications.

How It Compares

AMD Ryzen 7 8700G — The 8700G posts an average benchmark score of 31,407 against the 7745HX’s 31,402. The deltaPct is 0, meaning the two processors are effectively tied in aggregate CPU benchmark results. Neither chip has a meaningful overall advantage in this dataset.

Intel Core i7-12650HX — The data shows a 0.3% delta in favor of the 7745HX, with scores of 31,402 and 31,310. The gap is marginal, and the aggregate score does not suggest a decisive edge for either processor on a per-application basis.

AMD Ryzen 9 5980HX — This is the only nearest rival that leads the 7745HX. The Ryzen 9 5980HX averages 31,495 against 31,402, a 0.3% delta in its favor. The two parts sit close enough that workload selection, thermals, and platform tuning will decide real-world ordering.

Intel Core i5-13600H — The 7745HX leads this rival by 0.3%, matching the margin over the i7-12650HX. The score line is 31,402 versus 31,305. Within the group of four nearest rivals, the 7745HX holds a slight aggregate edge over both Intel processors and sits at parity with the Ryzen 7 8700G.

Power and Thermals

The 7745HX is specified at a 55 W TDP, which is the only power-related figure in the benchmark data. For a mobile processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, this TDP class implies a cooling solution designed for sustained multi-core work rather than a low-power or fanless design. The 3.60 GHz base clock and 5.10 GHz boost clock define the sustained-to-peak clock range that the thermal solution must support.

The processor is built on TSMC’s 5 nm process and has a die size of 71 mm². A dense 5 nm die with 16 threads means heat is concentrated in a small area, so the laptop chassis must provide adequate airflow and heat dissipation for long-running threaded loads. The Radeon 610M integrated GPU adds graphics capability within the mobile package, and the platform thermal design must account for combined CPU and graphics operation. Active production status means this thermal design remains relevant for current and near-term mobile systems using the 7745HX.
