More benchmarks have been filtered for the AMD Ryzen 4000 ‘Renoir’ APU family, with a focus on the entry-level Ryzen 3 4200G and the Ryzen 5 Pro 4400G. Both APUs were found in the 3DMark reference database.

Ryzen 4000 ‘Renoir’ desktop APUs from AMD have seen several leaks and last week Biostar even confirmed them by adding several models to its CPU support list. Among the two Renoir APUs evaluated are the Ryzen 3 4200G and the Ryzen 5 Pro 4400G. Both APUs will support the AM4 platform (400/500 series chipsets) and will be equipped with both the Zen 2 CPU and Vega GPU architecture based on TSMC’s 7nm process node.
First of all, the Ryzen 3 4200G seems to be the simplest chip in the Renoir family with 4 cores and 8 threads. The chip has a base clock of 3.8 GHz and a boost clock of 4.1 GHz. The graphics side has 6 CUs with a total of 384 cores operating at 1700 MHz.
The Ryzen 5 PRO 4400G, on the other hand, is a 6-core, 12-core piece with a 3.7 GHz base clock and an incremental 4.3 GHz clock. The chip must have 7 CUs for a total of 448 SPs running at 1900 MHz. Both CPUs will have a 65W TDP design, like their ‘GE’ brothers with a 35W TDP design.
The Ryzen 3 4200G was rated in 3DMark 11 and scored 6825 points in physics and 3489 points in graphics. This performance puts it ahead of the Ice Lake GT1 graphics chip with 32 ESUs and on par with an MX250 GPU. The CPU score is also lower than the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, which scored around 10,000 points but close to the Ryzen 3 3100.
With the Ryzen 5 4400G we have a physics score of 19,113 and a graphics score of 4033 in the 3DMark Firestrike benchmark, where the Ryzen 5 4400G is almost on par with the 8-core AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, while it far surpasses the Ryzen 5 3600 (not X). The graphics result is much better than that of the Ryzen 7 4800H, due to the higher clock speeds of 1900 MHz on the desktop model compared to 1600 MHz on the laptop model. A Ryzen 7 4800H scores around 3500 points in the graphics area.
Overall, the numbers for these entry-level chips seem decent enough, making them a suitable option for players with a small budget.
