日本[Comparison] Intel Core i7-1255U vs AMD Ryzen 7 5825U – a good showing from AMD
While the Ryzen 6000U-series is somewhere out there waiting for its time to shine, Alder Lake is going strong, with the U-series, P-series, and H-series going strong and dominating the market.
What AMD has to answer are three 5000U-series CPUs that have been redesigned for a smaller 6nm node, which should mean a better performing and more efficient architecture. Today we are comparing the peak of Alder Lake’s U-series and the Ryzen 5000U-series.

Conclusion
Alder Lake starts looking vulnerable, which is great for the overall state of the market, as it keeps Intel on their toes, while also giving AMD hope for the future and boosting the morale over at team Red. The fact of the matter is, Ryzens can offer a great value, as prices keep going down, due to the domination that Intel has over the market right now.
