Intel Core Ultra 5 125H “Meteor Lake” CPU Loses To AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS At 65W TDP, Arc iGPU Up To 18% Faster Than Radeon 780M
Intel's Core Ultra 5 125H "Meteor Lake" CPU benchmarks have been leaked by Lenovo ahead of launch & lost to the AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS.
As mentioned above, the latest Meteor Lake leak comes directly from Lenovo which has leaked out the performance of the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H CPU. The company compared the chip against two other CPUs, the Core i5-13500H (Raptor Lake) and the Ryzen 7 7840HS (Phoenix). All CPUs were tested at a 65W TDP to make sure that there are no disparities in the power department but still, thermal solutions of specific laptops can affect the final performance. Considering that these benchmarks come from Lenovo, they are likely based on their designs so thermal solutions could be very similar.
Starting with the specifications, the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H CPU is based on the Intel 4 process node and features a 14-core design that comprises 4 P-Cores, 8 E-Cores, and 2 LP E-Cores. The chip has 18 threads, a 3.6 GHz base clock, and a 4.5 GHz boost clock. It carries 20 MB of cache & it will be configured at a 28W TDP. The CPU also houses the Intel Arc Xe-LPG integrated graphics with 7 Xe-Cores.
Coming to the performance benchmarks, the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H "Meteor Lake" CPU was just slightly faster than the Core i5-13500H but it lost to AMD's Ryzen 7 7840HS 8-Core CPU in all of the multi-test benchmarks.
Lenovo claims that the 65W TDP design on their laptops can deliver up to 47.1% performance boost in benchmarks such as Cinebench R23 however the max difference in-between the 28W & 65W designs is an uplift of around 30% for the CPU and 15% for the GPU. The company also states that these results were carried on a Yoga Pro AI 2024 laptop.
The only area where the Meteor Lake CPU had a lead was the graphics
