  • Testing the AMD Ryzen 7 4700G APU in 10 popular and demanding games in 2023, using an RTX 3070 discrete GPU.
    Support Iceberg Tech: / icebergtech
    The XBOX Series X uses a custom APU built using Zen & RDNA architectures. While these are both common enough in modern DIY PC components, there are no exact matches to the console's components available from retail. There is, however, a partial solution from the OEM market: the Ryzen 7 4700G is an extremely close match to the XBox Series X's CPU, even down to the cache size. It was originally made for prebuilt PCs, but is now available on the used market via AliExpress. This might be the closest analogue to the processor in Microsoft's 9th generation consoles.

    I think a lot of people forget (or never fully realized) that early Zen really was never particularly fast; its advantages were lots of cores for cheap, and then they added in efficiency when they hit 7nm with Zen 2, but were still behind the Intel ST performance curve. It wasn't until Zen 3 that AMD really started to challenge Intel in ST.

      @Zefra except that is objectively not true. AMD managed to build up a massive multithread lead as early as Zen 2, but they were still behind in single thread and never established a significant lead in ST even when Zen 3 was new.
      And now that HEDT has been largely abandoned by both companies (although it appears to be coming back later this year) even AMDs massive multithread lead has largely disappeared on the mainstream platform, with intle arguably having the faster parts for single user MT tasks
      Right now, with Zen 4, the best thing AMD has going for it is efficiency. Otherwise, performance is largely a wash (AMD needed X3D again take back the gaming performance crown), and prices even favor Intel. If that is intel being "destroyed," then I have no idea how AMD survived from about 2006 until 2019.
      Right now, we are in a golden era of CPU competition that hasn't been this close since the early days of Athlon.

    R5 5600 is an excellent recommendation. If you're one of those people already considering a 5500, just put the extra money towards the 5600. At stock speeds it's only 200mhz slower than the 5600x (this applies to base + boost clocks) however, with PBO support this gap can easily be closed resulting in the same performance at almost the same power draw - depending on "silicon lottery" of course. You can also manually OC (like myself @ 4.7Ghz all-core) for even better performance - at the cost of slightly higher power draw & temps due to it being lower binned than the 5600x. Otherwise the rest of the CPU is identical from cache to PCIe 4.0 support. I'm not saying the 5500 is bad, but with half the L3 cache of the 5600/5600x along with only PCIe 3.0 support, you might as well get the 5600G in that case as at least the inclusion of the iGPU can be useful for various purposes. Such as being a display output if your discrete GPU is giving you trouble and you need to do some driver repairs, or gaming at low settings while saving up for a better GPU.

And it honestly depends on the title, but that lower L3 cache really cripples the 5500 in games that rely on it. Most of the time it struggles against the 12100F (in both performance and price) despite having a core/thread advantage, and is closer to Zen 2 CPUs like the 3600/3700x in performance despite having Zen 3 cores.

On PC, when you launch a game the OS is basically put on a low priority mode, especially now with "game mode" which stops unnecessary background tasks like Windows update etc.
      So basically, the Xbox will always be locked at 6 cores for gaming, that's why this video is a little misleading. If you ask me why Xbox locked out the 2 cores for OS, it's probably a RAM issue because consoles don't have large RAM sticks like on PC so the Xbox CPU has to do more tasks instead of storing them in memory (RAM). The two extra cores would then need to be prioritized for the OS so there aren't any issues that would freeze the console up or cause other issues.

    Big props for testing the iGPU. The DDR 4 4000 was great for that, for the CPU maybe no so much. I would enjoy a follow up vid where you test the Tomahawk's out of box PBO settings. The manual 4.3GHz is likely less perfomant in most games than max PBO boost obtainable. I'd like to see the CPU performance tested with lower clocked lower CL ram too. I presume you decoupled the infinity fabric from the ram speed for 4000MT/s. If so the fastest 1:1 you can hit with the lowest CL is probably going to be optimal. Especially if the ram is dual rank.
    The USB issues on older AM4 chipsets is well known. If you are running the latest bios, and all drivers are the latest, try a different port. If no joy, welcome to the club. I never did get some of my USB stuff to work right with an ASRock X370 with the latest everything on win 10 or 11.

    Overclocking in my opinion has been a waste of time since the 9th gen Intel processors. I've been instead undervolting my CPUs. As you demonstrated the performance gains are usually negligible, but the power consumption % increase is usually enormous by comparison to the performance gained. I know it's a little late but I found a game that might be a good addition to the CPU benchmark. I started playing Dead Rising 2, it's DX9 and therefore single-threaded and it maxed out my 11900k. I can barely hit the engine cap of 120fps due to the processor bottleneck.
    Another question about testing; How do you select area's for your benchmarks? I've been trying to optimize a game's settings lately and I'm struggling to find an area of the game that uses all of the graphical effects. Do you have a method of finding these areas, or is it that you just run around and find where performance is the lowest? I'm trying to test things like volumetric lighting and screen space reflections but I'm never quite sure if there are any in the scene I'm using. Any advice?
