The new AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX APU has been spotted in a benchmark. It defeats its predecessor by a mile, but Intel Alder Lake still wins -- except on one count.
The upcoming AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX Zen 3+ APU has been spotted in a leaked benchmark, giving us the first look at the expected performance of the chip.
AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX was found in a leaked Geekbench 5 test as part of a Lenovo 82RG laptop equipped with 32GB of memory and running Windows 11 Pro. It was first spotted by BenchLeaks on Twitter. The new AMD APU managed to score 1,616 points in the single-core test and 10,151 in the multi-core test. Things go south when comparing the APU to the newly released Intel Alder Lake laptop CPU, the Intel Core i9-12900H. Intel’s flagship processor scored 1,962 and 14,542 points in single-core and multi-core benchmarks respectively. This puts Intel at a huge advantage in terms of raw numbers, adding up to a 21% edge in single-core performance and 44% in multi-core performance.
Intel Core i9-12900H has a maximum turbo power of 115 watts. Compared to the 45W+ TDP of the AMD APU, the Intel Alder Lake processor will likely consume a lot more power. This may result in higher thermals and shorter battery life, giving AMD the lead when it comes to catering to gamers who like to play on the move. Intel users may be more reliant on having a power socket nearby, especially if gaming in turbo mode — the Core i9-12900H also has a base TDP of 45W.
