# AMD Ryzen 7 8840U + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile — Benchmark Database Analysis

This pairing combines AMD's 8-core Zen 4 mobile processor with NVIDIA's latest Blackwell 2.0 mobile GPU in a laptop-class build. The FACT PACK contains no measured FPS rows for this exact combination, so all frame-rate discussions below are estimates derived from the individual CPU and GPU benchmark scores, not direct game testing. The combined percentile of 76 places this build above roughly three-quarters of all tracked CPU+GPU pairings, though the specific balance between the 28 W processor and 50 W graphics chip warrants closer examination.

Gaming Performance — measured FPS by game and resolution from measuredFpsUltraByGame (or, if dataIsMeasured is false, frame expectations qualitatively from the benchmark scores and say the figures are estimates)

No measured FPS data exists for this CPU+GPU combination. The FACT PACK shows `measuredFpsUltraByGame` as empty, and `dataIsMeasured` is explicitly false. Consequently, every gaming performance figure discussed here is an estimate based on the component benchmark scores, not observed gameplay metrics.

The GPU's PassMark G3D score of 20355 places it near the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, which scores 29945 in average benchmark score — the RTX 5070 Mobile trails that desktop-class card by just 0.1%. This suggests 1440p gaming at high settings is a reasonable expectation, with 1080p likely delivering high refresh rates in most titles. The GPU's 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus provides 384.0 GB/s bandwidth, which is ample for current-generation game textures at 1080p and 1440p, though the 8 GB capacity could become a constraint at 4K with ultra texture packs.

The CPU's 3DMark scores tell a complementary story. The 16-thread score of 5691 and max-thread score of 5677 indicate strong multi-threaded headroom for game logic, physics, and background tasks. Single-thread performance, measured at 979 in 3DMark single-thread and 1703 in Cinebench R23 single-core, is competitive but not class-leading — this could marginally limit frame rates in CPU-bound esports titles at very high refresh rates.

For modern AAA games, the estimated FPS at 1080p ultra settings would likely range from 80 to 120 FPS depending on title optimization, based on the GPU's PassMark performance tier. At 1440p ultra, the estimate drops to roughly 60-90 FPS for most titles, while 4K ultra would likely fall below 60 FPS in demanding games — the 8 GB VRAM and 384.0 GB/s bandwidth are the limiting factors here. Esports titles like competitive shooters could push well beyond 144 FPS at 1080p with reduced settings, given the CPU's 5.10 GHz boost clock and the GPU's 13.13 TFLOPS FP32 throughput.

Benchmark Performance

The CPU's average benchmark score of 23982 places it at the 76th percentile versus all CPUs. Its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 5 8600G, scores 24089 — a mere 0.4% advantage for the rival. The Intel Xeon 6333P trails by 0.7%, and the AMD Ryzen 5 7540U leads by 0.9%. This clustering within roughly 1% of three other processors indicates the 8840U sits in a highly competitive mid-range performance band, where architectural differences matter more than raw core counts.

Breaking down the CPU benchmarks reveals a consistent pattern. Cinebench R23 multicore scores 12972, while single-core reaches 1703 — the ratio of about 7.6x suggests excellent scaling across the 8 cores and 16 threads. Geekbench multicore hits 9610 with single-core at 1970, a 4.9x ratio that reflects real-world mixed workloads. The PassMark suite shows specialized strengths: data compression at 267525, integer math at 85740, floating-point math at 48820, and extended instructions at 18654. These numbers indicate a processor that handles both integer-heavy database work and floating-point scientific calculations competently.

The GPU's PassMark G3D score of 20355 translates to the 75th percentile versus all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 29928 is remarkably close to the RTX 3070 Ti (29945, 0.1% behind) and RTX 2080 Ti (29783, 0.5% ahead). In compute workloads, the Geekbench OpenCL score of 122238 and Vulkan score of 116960 demonstrate strong general-purpose GPU compute capability. The PassMark GPU compute score of 8279 is lower proportionally, suggesting some workloads leverage the architecture better than others.

The combined picture shows a balanced pairing: both components sit at the 75-76th percentile, creating a laptop that should not have obvious single-component bottlenecks in most applications. The CPU's 76th percentile and GPU's 75th percentile are close enough that neither dramatically outclasses the other.

Who Should Build It

Gamers targeting 1080p and 1440p high-refresh displays represent the primary audience. The GPU's performance tier, estimated from its benchmark scores, suggests it can drive 1440p at high settings in most titles, while the CPU's 16 threads ensure smooth frame pacing in modern games that use multiple cores. The 76th combined percentile means this laptop sits above the mainstream gaming tier.

Content creators working with video editing or 3D rendering will find the CPU's Cinebench R23 multicore score of 12972 useful for export tasks, while the GPU's 13.13 TFLOPS FP32 throughput accelerates GPU-accelerated effects and rendering. The 8 GB GDDR7 VRAM is adequate for 1080p and 1440p video work but may limit 4K compositing projects.

Software developers benefit from the CPU's PassMark data encryption score of 16072 and extended instructions score of 18654, which indicate strong cryptographic and SIMD performance for compilation and testing. The 16 threads handle parallel builds efficiently, and the 5.10 GHz boost clock keeps single-threaded tasks responsive.

Students and small business users get a capable workstation for office productivity, spreadsheet analysis, and light data science. The PassMark single-thread score of 3543 ensures snappy application responsiveness, while the 8 cores handle multitasking across many open applications. The 28 W CPU TDP contributes to battery-friendly operation in a laptop form factor.

CPU Analysis

The AMD Ryzen 7 8840U is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture, codenamed Hawk Point. It belongs to the AMD 8000 series and is manufactured on TSMC's 4 nm process node with 25,000 million transistors on a 178 mm² die. The base clock is 3.30 GHz with a boost clock of 5.10 GHz, and the TDP is a modest 28 W — clearly tuned for mobile efficiency rather than desktop-class power.

The cache hierarchy comprises 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB L2 per core, and 16 MB of shared L3 cache. This 16 MB L3 is modest by modern desktop standards but appropriate for a 28 W mobile part. The 89.6 GB/s dual-channel DDR5 memory bandwidth is the data pipeline feeding these cores, and the 20 PCIe Gen 4 lanes provide connectivity for storage and peripherals.

Benchmark results show a processor that scales well with thread count. The 3DMark progression from 979 single-thread to 1863 for 2 threads, 3289 for 4 threads, 4896 for 8 threads, and 5691 for 16 threads demonstrates near-linear scaling up to 8 threads, with diminishing returns at 16 threads due to simultaneous multithreading. This pattern indicates that real-world workloads with 4-8 active threads — typical of gaming, office work, and content creation — will see excellent utilization.

The Cinebench R23 multicore score of 12972 and single-core of 1703 place this chip comfortably in the upper-mid range for mobile processors. The PassMark multithread score of 23346 and single-thread of 3543 reinforce this positioning. The data encryption score of 16072 and extended instructions score of 18654 suggest strong AES-NI and AVX-512 implementation, which benefits encryption, compression, and scientific workloads.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The CPU uses the AMD Socket FP8, a mobile-specific socket that is not upgradeable in the traditional desktop sense. The platform supports dual-channel DDR5 memory with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth and non-ECC modules only. The CPU provides PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, while the GPU connects via PCIe 5.0 x16.

The GPU has a TDP of 50 W and uses no power connectors, drawing power through the motherboard — typical for laptop designs where upgradeability is limited to system-level replacement rather than component swaps. The absence of a suggested PSU value in the FACT PACK indicates this is not a DIY desktop build but an integrated laptop solution.

For users considering a sensible next upgrade, the data suggests the GPU is the more likely bottleneck in gaming scenarios, given its 8 GB VRAM capacity and the rapidly increasing VRAM requirements of modern titles. A future laptop with more VRAM or a higher-bandwidth memory bus would extend gaming longevity. On the CPU side, the 76th percentile means there is headroom above this chip, but the 28 W TDP and mobile form factor constrain options — upgrading would mean moving to a different laptop entirely.

The FP8 socket is shared with other AMD mobile processors, so theoretically a system built around this socket could accommodate a different chip in the same generation. However, the 28 W TDP and integrated nature of laptop designs make this impractical in most cases.

Balance and Bottleneck

The CPU and GPU are closely matched in percentile terms — 76th versus 75th — which suggests a well-balanced build for most workloads. However, the nature of the bottleneck shifts depending on the application.

In gaming, the GPU is likely the primary constraint at higher resolutions. The 8 GB GDDR7 VRAM and 384.0 GB/s bandwidth are the limiting factors for 4K gaming, while the 13.13 TFLOPS FP32 throughput caps raw fill rates. The CPU's 5.10 GHz boost clock and strong single-thread score of 979 in 3DMark mean it can keep up with the GPU at 1080p and 1440p in most titles, but at very high frame rates (above 144 FPS) in esports games, the CPU's single-thread performance could become the limiting factor.

In productivity workloads, the CPU's 16 threads and 12972 Cinebench R23 multicore score provide strong multi-threaded performance, but the GPU's compute capabilities (Geekbench OpenCL 122238) may be underutilized in office applications. The PassMark GPU compute score of 8279 is lower than expected given the raw FP32 throughput, suggesting driver or architecture inefficiencies in certain compute workloads.

The data implies that this pairing is balanced for mainstream gaming and content creation, but users pushing 4K gaming or heavy GPU compute will hit the GPU's limits first, while users running heavily multi-threaded CPU workloads will find the 28 W TDP constrains sustained performance.

Build Overview

This is a laptop-class build combining the AMD Ryzen 7 8840U (8 cores, 16 threads, Zen 4 Hawk Point) with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile (Blackwell 2.0, 4608 shading units). The combined percentile of 76 indicates this system outperforms roughly three-quarters of all tracked pairings.

The CPU's 76th percentile versus all CPUs and GPU's 75th percentile versus all GPUs place both components in the upper-mid range of their respective categories. This is not a flagship build — that would require components in the 90th-plus percentile — but it is a solidly above-average laptop configuration.

The 28 W CPU TDP and 50 W GPU TDP combine for a total of 78 W of chip power, which is modest for a gaming laptop and suggests this could fit into thinner, lighter chassis designs. The 4 nm CPU and 5 nm GPU process nodes contribute to power efficiency, with the CPU using 25,000 million transistors and the GPU 21,900 million.

The pairing's strength lies in its balance: neither component dramatically outperforms the other, which minimizes wasted potential. The 8 GB GDDR7 memory on the GPU and 16 MB L3 cache on the CPU are appropriate for the performance tier.

GPU Analysis

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile is built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture using the GB206 chip, manufactured on TSMC's 5 nm process with 21,900 million transistors on a 181 mm² die. The GPU has 4608 shading units, 144 texture mapping units, and 48 ROPs, along with 36 RT cores and 144 tensor cores. The base clock is 907 MHz with a boost clock of 1425 MHz.

Memory consists of 8 GB of GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus, running at 1500 MHz with 24 Gbps effective speed, yielding 384.0 GB/s bandwidth. This is a notable improvement over GDDR6 in terms of bandwidth per bit, but the 128-bit bus width constrains total bandwidth compared to wider-bus desktop cards. The pixel rate is 68.40 GPixel/s and texture rate is 205.2 GTexel/s, with FP32 performance at 13.13 TFLOPS and FP16 at 13.13 TFLOPS (1:1 ratio).

Benchmark performance is solid: PassMark G3D scores 20355, placing the GPU at the 75th percentile. Geekbench OpenCL scores 122238 and Vulkan 116960, indicating strong compute and graphics API performance. The PassMark DirectX scores (129 for DX10, 192 for DX11, 93 for DX12, 214 for DX9) show that DX11 workloads are particularly well-optimized, while DX12 performance is comparatively lower — this could impact modern games that rely heavily on DX12 features.

The 36 RT cores and 144 tensor cores provide hardware acceleration for ray tracing and AI workloads, though the 13.13 TFLOPS FP32 throughput suggests the GPU is more oriented toward rasterization than compute-heavy tasks. The 8 GB VRAM is adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming, but the 384.0 GB/s bandwidth may limit performance in texture-heavy scenarios at higher resolutions.

Usage Scenarios

High-Refresh Gaming: At 1080p, this pairing is estimated to deliver well over 100 FPS in most titles based on the GPU's PassMark G3D score of 20355 and the CPU's strong single-thread performance (3DMark single-thread 979). The 5.10 GHz boost clock ensures the CPU doesn't bottleneck competitive shooters, while the 8 GB GDDR7 handles modern game assets.

Streaming: The CPU's 16 threads (Cinebench R23 multicore 12972) provide headroom for encoding while gaming, and the GPU's NVENC-class tensor cores (144 total) can offload encoding tasks. The combined 76th percentile suggests smooth streaming at 1080p, though the 50 W GPU TDP may limit simultaneous gaming and encoding performance.

Video Editing: The CPU's PassMark multithread score of 23346 and GPU's Geekbench OpenCL score of 122238 indicate strong performance for timeline editing, effects, and export. The 8 GB VRAM is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p projects, though 4K multi-layer timelines may exceed memory capacity.

3D Rendering: The GPU's 13.13 TFLOPS FP32 and 36 RT cores provide hardware-accelerated ray tracing, while the CPU's 16 threads handle scene preparation and physics. The PassMark GPU compute score of 8279 suggests moderate compute performance — render times will be respectable but not class-leading.

Software Development: The CPU's data encryption score of 16072 and extended instructions score of 18654 handle cryptographic and SIMD workloads efficiently. The 8 cores and 16 threads compile code quickly, and the 4 nm process with 28 W TDP allows sustained performance in a laptop chassis.

Student and Office Work: The PassMark single-thread score of 3543 ensures responsive application usage, while the 8-core design handles multitasking across documents, browsers, and communication tools. The 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth and DDR5 support keep system operations fluid, and the integrated Radeon 780M provides a fallback when the discrete GPU is idle.
