Processing Power

The Ryzen 7 6800U is a 8-core / 16-thread processor based on the Rembrandt-U (Zen 3+) (2022) architecture, manufactured on a 6 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 4.7 GHz from a base frequency of 2.7 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 16 MB (total) of L3 cache, plus 512K (per core) of L2 cache and 64K (per core) of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 20,619, placing it in the Mid-Range performance tier as a Aging generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 1,713, while multi-core reaches 7,397. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 11,741.
