720p-1080p Low Older Games

The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H paired with the AMD Radeon 760M is a mobile platform designed for versatility rather than raw gaming dominance. The CPU, a 16-core Meteor Lake part, sits in the 83rd percentile of all processors, while the integrated Radeon 760M GPU lands in the 35th percentile. This pairing produces a combined percentile of 59, with an average of 36 FPS across tested games at ultra settings. The data reveals a system that excels at productivity and multi-threaded workloads, but whose gaming capabilities are firmly in the entry-level to mid-range segment, best suited for esports and older titles rather than demanding AAA experiences.

Usage Scenarios

High-refresh gaming is not a realistic target for this configuration at ultra settings. In esports titles, the Radeon 760M delivers playable but not high-refresh rates: Counter-Strike 2 hits 53 FPS, Valorant reaches 121 FPS, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive manages 117 FPS at 1920x1080. The 121 FPS in Valorant is the only result approaching high-refresh territory, while most other competitive titles fall into the 50-60 FPS range, indicating that high refresh monitors are wasted on this iGPU.

Streaming presents a mixed picture. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15028 provides ample headroom for encoding and running a game simultaneously, and the PassMark multi-thread score of 24873 confirms strong parallel processing capability. However, the GPU's passmark_g3d score of 5310 and its 35th percentile ranking suggest that the graphics workload would struggle, especially in modern titles, making simultaneous game streaming at high quality a challenge.

Video editing is a strong suit for this system. The 22 threads and the Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15028 indicate excellent rendering performance for export tasks. The PassMark extended instructions score of 16456 further supports this, as those instructions accelerate media encoding. The weak GPU will be a bottleneck for effects-heavy timelines, but the CPU can handle 4K export workloads efficiently.

3D rendering benefits heavily from the CPU's 16 cores and 22 threads. The Cinebench R20 multi-core score of 8754 and R15 multi-core score of 2450 show that the processor is well-suited for CPU-based rendering engines. The Radeon 760M's 5.323 TFLOPS of FP32 performance is negligible for GPU rendering, meaning any ray-traced or GPU-accelerated render will be exceptionally slow.

Software development is a primary use case for this chip. The PassMark data encryption score of 16358 and data compression score of 277353 indicate strong performance for cryptographic operations and build tooling. The high single-thread score of 3468 in PassMark ensures responsive compilation for smaller projects, while the multi-thread score of 24873 accelerates large codebase builds.

Student and office work is where this platform shines. The 28W TDP suggests efficient operation in a laptop chassis, and the CPU's strong single-core performance (Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1743) ensures snappy application loading. The Radeon 760M's passmark_g2d score of 890 is sufficient for desktop rendering and 2D applications, making this an ideal all-day productivity machine.

GPU Analysis

The AMD Radeon 760M is an integrated GPU based on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, fabricated on TSMC's 4 nm process. It features 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 raster operation pipelines. The GPU operates at a base clock of 800 MHz and can boost up to 2599 MHz, producing a pixel rate of 41.58 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 83.17 GTexel/s. The FP32 performance is rated at 5.323 TFLOPS.

Memory is system-shared, meaning the GPU uses the same DDR5 memory as the CPU, with bandwidth described as "System Dependent." This is a significant limitation, as the CPU's memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s must be shared between both processing units. The GPU includes 8 ray tracing cores, supporting DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, but the ray tracing performance is minimal due to the low overall compute power.

Benchmark results place the 760M in the 35th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 6019. Its nearest rival is the discrete AMD Radeon RX 6400, which scores 6001, a 0.3% difference. This means the integrated GPU performs at the level of a low-end discrete graphics card from a previous generation. The Geekbench Vulkan score of 30336 and OpenCL score of 20255 show that compute workloads are handled adequately, but the PassMark DirectX 12 score of 25 and DirectX 11 score of 52 reveal its gaming limitations. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 400 is a clear indicator that this GPU is not designed for modern, graphically intensive titles.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H uses the Intel BGA 2049 socket, which is a soldered mobile platform. This means the CPU is not upgradeable, and users are locked into the processor they purchase. The system supports DDR5 memory, with the specific type depending on the motherboard, and operates in dual-channel mode. The memory bus provides a bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, which is shared with the integrated GPU.

PCIe connectivity is provided via Gen 5 with 8 lanes from the CPU. This is crucial for future upgrades, as it allows for the installation of a discrete GPU. The integrated Radeon 760M uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface, and the system's power delivery is designed around the CPU's 28W TDP and the GPU's 15W TDP. The suggested PSU is not specified, but the low TDPs indicate that a modest power supply would suffice for the base configuration.

A sensible next upgrade would be to add a discrete GPU for gaming performance. The PCIe Gen 5 x8 interface provides sufficient bandwidth for a modern graphics card, and the CPU's strong multi-core performance would prevent bottlenecking in most scenarios. However, the BGA socket means the CPU cannot be replaced, so the upgrade path is limited to memory, storage, and the addition of a discrete GPU.

Who Should Build It

This platform is ideal for students who need a laptop that can handle coursework, research, and light entertainment. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15028 ensures smooth multitasking, while the integrated GPU can handle casual games like Minecraft at 52 FPS and Roblox at 68 FPS at 1080p.

Content creators working primarily with CPU-based tools will find value here. Video editors using software that leverages the CPU's 22 threads will benefit from the Cinebench R20 multi-core score of 8754. The PassMark floating point math score of 63703 and integer math score of 86870 indicate robust performance for data analysis and scientific computing.

Business professionals and small business workstations are a perfect match. The PassMark single-thread score of 3468 ensures fast application startup, and the data encryption score of 16358 provides secure communications. The platform's efficiency, with a 28W CPU TDP and 15W GPU TDP, is well-suited for office environments where power consumption matters.

Gamers are not the target audience. At 1920x1080 ultra settings, the system delivers only 24 FPS in Grand Theft Auto V and 16 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077. Even at lower settings, the 35th percentile GPU ranking means that modern AAA titles will be unplayable. This is a platform for esports enthusiasts who prioritize titles like Valorant (121 FPS) or CS:GO (117 FPS), not for those seeking immersive single-player experiences.

Balance and Bottleneck

The system exhibits a clear imbalance between CPU and GPU performance. The CPU sits in the 83rd percentile of all processors, while the GPU is in the 35th percentile. This means the Radeon 760M is the primary bottleneck in nearly every graphics-intensive workload. In gaming, the CPU has significant headroom, as evidenced by the PassMark physics score of 1727, which is a CPU-bound test. The GPU's PassMark G3D score of 5310 is the limiting factor in frame rate.

The bottleneck manifests differently across resolutions. At 1920x1080, the average FPS across all tested games is 36. At 2560x1440, the average drops to 24 FPS, and at 3840x2160, it falls to 14 FPS. This scaling shows that the GPU is saturated even at 1080p, and increasing resolution further strains it. The CPU is not the bottleneck; for instance, in Counter-Strike 2, the FPS drops from 53 at 1080p to 20 at 4K, a clear GPU limitation. In CPU-light games like Valorant, the 121 FPS at 1080p shows the CPU can push high frame rates, but the GPU cannot maintain them at higher resolutions.

For productivity, the bottleneck is the GPU. The PassMark GPU compute score of 2840 is low, meaning tasks that require GPU acceleration, such as video encoding in some software, will be slow. However, the CPU's performance in multi-threaded tasks (Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15028) is excellent, and the system is well-balanced for CPU-bound workloads.

Gaming Performance

Measured FPS data at ultra settings reveals a system that handles esports and older titles but struggles with modern AAA games. The data is measured, not estimated, providing a clear picture of real-world performance.

At 1920x1080, the highest performance is in Valorant with 121 FPS, followed by Call of Duty: Warzone at 133 FPS and CS:GO at 117 FPS. These are playable for competitive gaming. Counter-Strike 2 achieves 53 FPS, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege hits 63 FPS, and Minecraft runs at 52 FPS. However, demanding titles are poor: Cyberpunk 2077 manages only 16 FPS, Red Dead Redemption 2 hits 14 FPS, and The Medium drops to 11 FPS.

At 2560x1440, performance drops significantly. Valorant remains playable at 103 FPS, and Call of Duty: Warzone hits 119 FPS. CS:GO drops to 80 FPS. But most games fall below 60 FPS, with Counter-Strike 2 at 35 FPS and Fortnite at 16 FPS. The average across all games at this resolution is 24 FPS, which is not smooth for most gaming.

At 3840x2160, the integrated GPU is overwhelmed. The highest result is Call of Duty: Warzone at 100 FPS, but this is an anomaly. Valorant drops to 83 FPS, and CS:GO falls to 47 FPS. Most games are unplayable, with Cyberpunk 2077 at 8 FPS, Red Dead Redemption 2 at 7 FPS, and Ark: Survival Ascended at 3 FPS. The average across all games is 14 FPS.

The pair rank by FPS is 3732 out of 3732 pairs, meaning this is the lowest-performing combination in the database. The average FPS across all games is 36, confirming that this is an entry-level gaming solution.
