Processing Power

The Ryzen Embedded V2718 is a 8-core / 16-thread processor based on the Renoir (2020−2023) architecture, manufactured on a 7 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 4.15 GHz from a base frequency of 1.7 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 8 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 15,831, 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 1,124, while multi-core reaches 4,551. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 654.
