AMD Ryzen 7 7736U vs AMD Ryzen Z2 Go vs AMD Ryzen 3 7335U

AMD Ryzen 7 7736U

The AMD Ryzen 7 7736U is a processor for mid-sized laptops based of the Rembrandt refresh generation. The R7 7736U integrates all eight cores based on the Zen 3+ microarchitecture. They are clocked at 2.7 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.75 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (16 threads). The chip is manufactured on the modern 6 nm TSMC process. Compared to the previous Ryzen 7 6800U, the 7736U offers the same specs and a slightly higher possible TDP of 15-28W (vs 15-25W). The 7736U is a special version for HP of the Ryzen 7 7735U / Ryzen 7 6800U.

The Zen 3+ is a refresh of the Zen 3 architecture and should not offer a lot of changes. The chip offers modern features, like support for USB 4 (40 Gbps), PCI-E Gen 4 and DDR5-4800MT/s or LPDDR5-6400MT/s.

The performance should be similar to the old Ryzen 7 6800U due to the same specifications. The Ryzen 7 R7 7735U should be in theory a bit higher due to the 50 MHz higher boost clock.

The integrated GPU Radeon 680M is still one of the fastest iGPUs (only bested by the new Radeon 780M). It is based on the RDNA2 architecture and offers 12 CUs at up to 2.2 GHz.

The Ryzen 7736U is manufactured in 6nm FinFET at TSMC.

AMD Ryzen Z2 Go

The AMD Ryzen Z2 Go is a processor for cheap handhelds based of the Rembrandt refresh generation. The Ryzen packs four of the eight cores based on the Zen 3+ microarchitecture. They are clocked at 3 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.3 GHz (single core boost) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (8 threads). The Ryzen Z2 Go is based on the same chip as the old AMD Ryzen 7335U, but with a faster iGPU with all 12 CUs (Radeon 680M, clock speed not currently known).

The Zen 3+ is a refresh of the Zen 3 architecture and should not offer a lot of changes. The chip offers modern features, like support for USB 4 (40 Gbps), PCI-E Gen 4 and DDR5-4800MT/s or LPDDR5-6400MT/s.

The performance should be clearly better than the old Ryzen 3 5300U and Ryzen 3 5425U due to the higher clock speed and improved architecture. The similar named other Ryzen Z2 chips, are based on newer chips and therefore clearly faster and more energy efficient.

The Ryzen Z2 Go is manufactured in 6nm FinFET at TSMC and specified at a TDP of 28W (15 - 30 Watt configurable).

AMD Ryzen 3 7335U

The AMD Ryzen 3 7335U is a processor for mid-sized laptops based of the Rembrandt refresh generation. The Ryzen packs four of the eight cores based on the Zen 3+ microarchitecture. They are clocked at 3 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.3 GHz (single core boost) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (8 threads). The 7335U is the first Ryzen 3 based on the Zen 3+ architecture and slowest model of the 7035U series.

The Zen 3+ is a refresh of the Zen 3 architecture and should not offer a lot of changes. The chip offers modern features, like support for USB 4 (40 Gbps), PCI-E Gen 4 and DDR5-4800MT/s or LPDDR5-6400MT/s.

The performance should be clearly better than the old Ryzen 3 5300U and Ryzen 3 5425U due to the higher clock speed and improved architecture.

The integrated GPU Radeon 660M is still a fast iGPUs based on the RDNA2 architecture and offers 4 of the 12 CUs at up to 1.8 GHz.

The Ryzen 7335U is manufactured in 6nm FinFET at TSMC and specified at a TDP of 28W.
