# AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX + AMD Radeon 780M

This pairing combines a 12-core Zen 4 Dragon Range mobile processor with AMD's RDNA 3.0 integrated graphics in a laptop-class build. Benchmark data shows the CPU performing at the 89th percentile among all processors, while the GPU sits at the 61st percentile among all graphics cards, placing the combined system at the 75th percentile overall. No measured FPS rows exist for this exact combination — the FACT PACK contains no measuredFps data — so all frame-rate discussion below is estimated from the benchmark scores and clearly flagged as such.

Balance and Bottleneck

The performance relationship between these two components is heavily skewed toward the processor. The Ryzen 9 7845HX scores 46,654 on average across its benchmark suite, ranking it in the 89th percentile of all CPUs. That places it within 0.5% of the Intel Core i7-13700K (46,881, deltaPct -0.5) and essentially tied with the Intel Xeon w3-2535 (46,653, deltaPct 0). Meanwhile, the Radeon 780M's average benchmark score of 17,588 puts it in the 61st percentile of all GPUs, trailing the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 by 0.3% (17,639) and the AMD Radeon HD 7790 by 0.4% (17,666).

This 28-point percentile gap between CPU and GPU means the integrated graphics will be the limiting factor in graphics-bound workloads. The CPU's single-thread score of 1,852 in Cinebench R23 and 2,389 in Geekbench indicates it can feed even demanding game engines with data, but the GPU's 8.909 TFLOPS FP32 throughput caps what can be rendered. In gaming scenarios, the bottleneck will almost always be the Radeon 780M, particularly at higher resolutions where pixel throughput demands exceed what 32 ROPs can deliver.

For productivity tasks, the balance shifts entirely. The CPU's 12 cores and 24 threads with a 64 MB shared L3 cache mean compute-bound workloads like rendering or compilation will stretch the processor's legs, while the GPU idles. The Passmark multithread score of 45,010 and Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 26,876 confirm that this CPU is capable of workstation-class throughput, but only when the workload doesn't need sustained GPU acceleration.

The asymmetric nature of this pairing is further highlighted by the 3DMark thread scaling. The CPU scores 10,068 on 16 threads and 11,108 at max threads, showing only modest gains beyond 16 threads — the scaling from 8 threads (7,140) to 16 threads (10,068) is a 41% increase, while moving from 16 to max threads adds just 10.3%. This suggests that while the CPU has headroom for heavily threaded workloads, the integrated GPU cannot leverage that headroom in real-time graphics.

CPU Analysis

The AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX is a 12-core, 24-thread processor built on TSMC's 5 nm process node with 13,140 million transistors across a 2x 71 mm² die configuration. It belongs to the 7000 series and uses the Zen 4 architecture under the Dragon Range codename. The base clock of 3.00 GHz can boost up to 5.20 GHz, and the multiplier is unlocked for overclocking on supported platforms.

The cache hierarchy comprises 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB L2 per core, and 64 MB shared L3 cache. This large L3 allocation benefits workloads with shared data access patterns, such as database operations or virtualization. The Passmark data compression score of 543,539 and random string sorting score of 63,223 reflect strong memory subsystem performance.

Benchmark results show remarkable scaling from 2 to 8 threads. The 3DMark scores progress from 1,988 at 2 threads to 3,807 at 4 threads (91.5% scaling), 7,140 at 8 threads (87.5% scaling from 4), and 10,068 at 16 threads (41% scaling from 8). This indicates the architecture extracts near-linear gains up to 8 threads, then transitions to diminishing returns as memory bandwidth and power limits become more significant factors.

The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 26,876 positions this chip within 0.5% of the Intel Core i7-13700K (46,881 avg, deltaPct -0.5) and 0.4% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X (46,487, deltaPct 0.4). That a 55 W mobile processor matches a 125 W desktop part from the previous generation is notable. The single-core Cinebench R23 score of 1,852 and Geekbench single-core of 2,389 confirm that per-thread performance is also competitive.

The Passmark integer math score of 155,118 and floating point math of 94,287 highlight the CPU's arithmetic throughput. Extended instructions score 41,020, and encryption performance reaches 32,789. The find prime numbers result of 329 is relatively low, suggesting the architecture prioritizes throughput over latency-sensitive iterative workloads.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The Ryzen 9 7845HX uses AMD Socket FL1, which is specific to mobile platforms. This means the CPU is not upgradeable in the traditional desktop sense; the socket is soldered or BGA-mounted in most laptop designs. The platform supports dual-channel DDR5 memory with ECC capability and a memory bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s.

PCIe support includes Gen 5 with 28 lanes from the CPU only. This provides ample bandwidth for the system's storage and expansion needs, though the integrated GPU uses PCIe 4.0 x8. The CPU's integrated graphics is the Radeon 610M, which is separate from the Radeon 780M in this build — the latter may be a different SKU configuration or the system may use the more capable IGP.

The GPU has a TDP of 15 W and requires no power connectors, which means the system's power delivery is dominated by the CPU's 55 W TDP. No suggested PSU is listed for this integrated graphics solution, and the IGP slot width means no discrete GPU is present. A sensible next upgrade for this platform would be adding a discrete GPU via external graphics or building a new system, since the laptop form factor limits internal expansion.

The production status for both components is Active, and the CPU was released on 2023-01-03 while the GPU followed on 2024-01-30. The GPU's predecessor is Navi II IGP and its successor is Navi III IGP, indicating this is the middle generation of AMD's integrated graphics line. The 4 nm process node for the GPU and 5 nm for the CPU reflect modern manufacturing.

Gaming Performance

No measured FPS data exists for this exact CPU+GPU combination. The FACT PACK contains no measuredFps rows, so all frame-rate expectations below are estimates based on benchmark scores, not measured results.

The Radeon 780M's 61st percentile GPU ranking and 8.909 TFLOPS FP32 throughput suggest it can handle 1080p gaming at medium to low settings for many titles. The 32 ROPs and 48 TMUs provide a pixel rate of 92.80 GPixel/s and texture rate of 139.2 GTexel/s, which are modest figures by discrete GPU standards but respectable for integrated graphics.

The GPU's nearest rival comparisons are informative. It scores 0.2% above the AMD Radeon Pro 560 (17,551) and 0.5% above the AMD Radeon Pro 460 (17,509), while trailing the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 by 0.3% (17,639) and the AMD Radeon HD 7790 by 0.4% (17,666). These are older or lower-tier discrete GPUs, suggesting the 780M can approach entry-level discrete graphics performance in some scenarios.

The 12 RT cores enable hardware ray tracing, though the 8.909 TFLOPS FP32 budget means ray-traced workloads will be severely limited. DirectX 12 Ultimate support (12_2) ensures feature compatibility with modern games, but performance will be constrained by the shared memory architecture and system-dependent bandwidth.

For competitive esports titles at 1080p, the combination of the strong CPU single-thread performance (Geekbench 2,389 single-core) and the GPU's throughput should provide playable frame rates at medium settings. For AAA titles, expect lower settings and potentially 720p resolution to maintain smooth gameplay. The CPU's 3DMark 16-thread score of 10,068 indicates it will not bottleneck the GPU in most gaming scenarios.

GPU Analysis

The AMD Radeon 780M is an integrated graphics processor built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, fabricated on TSMC's 4 nm process with 25,390 million transistors on a 178 mm² die. It belongs to the Navi III IGP generation and is branded under the Phoenix chip name. The GPU runs at a base clock of 800 MHz with a boost of 2900 MHz.

Memory is entirely system shared, meaning the GPU borrows from the host's DDR5 pool. The bandwidth is listed as system dependent, which directly ties graphics performance to the CPU's memory configuration. With dual-channel DDR5 at 83.2 GB/s, the effective graphics bandwidth is significantly lower than discrete GPUs with dedicated VRAM.

The compute configuration includes 768 shading units, 48 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. The FP32 throughput of 8.909 TFLOPS is the headline compute figure, with FP16 also at 8.909 TFLOPS (1:1 ratio). This symmetric FP16/FP32 throughput is characteristic of RDNA 3.0 and benefits workloads that can use mixed precision. The 12 RT cores provide hardware ray tracing acceleration, though the overall compute budget limits ray-traced effects.

The GPU's 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 480 is its flagship benchmark result. Geekbench OpenCL scores 18,602 and Vulkan scores 33,683, the latter showing strong API-level performance. The 61st percentile ranking among all GPUs places it above the median but below most discrete solutions.

The nearest rival data shows a tight cluster: the 780M is 0.2% above the Radeon Pro 560 (17,551), 0.5% above the Radeon Pro 460 (17,509), 0.3% below the GeForce RTX 4060 (17,639), and 0.4% below the Radeon HD 7790 (17,666). This suggests the 780M performs similarly to entry-level discrete GPUs from several generations ago, which is remarkable for an integrated solution but still limits modern gaming and rendering workloads.

Benchmark Performance

The CPU's average benchmark score is 46,654, placing it in the 89th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rival is the Intel Xeon w3-2535 at 46,653 (deltaPct 0), making them effectively identical in average performance.

Passmark results show multithread at 45,010, integer math at 155,118, floating point math at 94,287, and data compression at 543,539.

The GPU's average benchmark score is 17,588, placing it in the 61st percentile of all GPUs. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 480, Geekbench OpenCL is 18,602, and Geekbench Vulkan is 33,683. The nearest rival is the AMD Radeon Pro 560 at 17,551 (deltaPct 0.2), with the GeForce RTX 4060 at 17,639 (-0.3%), Radeon HD 7790 at 17,666 (-0.4%), and Radeon Pro 460 at 17,509 (0.5%).

The combined system percentile is 75, reflecting the significant gap between the CPU's 89th percentile and GPU's 61st percentile performance. The pair rank by FPS is null due to the absence of measured gaming data. This combined picture shows a processor that outperforms its integrated graphics companion by a wide margin in raw compute capability.
