Technical Analysis
Detailed breakdown of Ryzen 7 7745HX specifications and capabilities.
Processing Power
The Ryzen 7 7745HX is a 8-core / 16-thread processor based on the Dragon Range (Zen 4) (2023) architecture, manufactured on a CCD = 5 nm, I/O = 6 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 5.1 GHz from a base frequency of 3.6 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 32 MB (total) of L3 cache, plus 1 MB (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 32,515, placing it in the High-End performance tier as a Recent generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 2,623, while multi-core reaches 14,000. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 18,606.
