AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS Linux Performance With The TUXEDO Pulse 14 Gen 3
In total I ran more than 370 benchmarks across these three laptops on Ubuntu 23.10 + Linux 6.7. You can see the link above if wanting to go through each result individually but long story short:
When taking the geometric mean of all the results completed on all 3 laptops, the Ryzen 7 7840HS within the TUXEDO Pulse 14 Gen 3 was around 4% faster than the very capable Ryzen 7 7840U. Not bad for a typically ~4 Watt or less increase to the SoC power consumption at least with the default configuration of the TUXEDO Pulse 14 Gen 3. The Ryzen 7 7840HS was 33% faster than the tested Intel Core Ultra 7 155H Meteor Lake processor within the Acer Swift Go 14.
The Radeon 780M graphics within the Ryzen 7 7840HS have the same 12 CU count and 2.7GHz frequency as the Ryzen 7 7840U. But for those curious about those numbers anyways, here are some graphics results:
The Arc Graphics is one of the most impressive aspects of the new Intel Meteor Lake processors. The Arc Graphics have been performing well on Linux and are often trading blows with the RDNA3 integrated graphics.
The Ryzen 7 7840HS was helping to deliver better performance over the Ryzen 7 7840U thanks to its higher power capacity while the Radeon 780M graphics are the same. More data on the graphics front via this result page.
