CPU benchmarks

Starting with the 3D Rendering benchmark with Cinebench 20, the Ryzen 7 5800H performed 42% faster. As for the 2D Rendering test with Photoshop, the Ryzen 7 was better once again, this time finishing the benchmark with a lead of 0.8 seconds.

3D Rendering

Results are from the Cinebench R23 CPU test (the higher the score, the better)

Conclusion

These results were expected. Still, a performance gap of around 40% is definitely worth the extra cash that you’ll spend if you decide to buy a Ryzen 7 5800H equipped device. However, we would advise looking at Intel’s offerings as well, as their Tiger Lake H processors have been killing it, delivering great 2D and 3D Rendering performance.
