About Hardware AMD Ryzen 3 5300U
Released in 2021, the AMD Ryzen 3 5300U is a Zen 2 architecture-based mobile processor designed for ultrabook laptops and power-efficient devices. The processor comes with a configuration of 4 cores and 8 threads, a base speed of 2.6 GHz, and can increase to 3.8 GHz through the Boost feature. With a 7nm fabrication process, the Ryzen 3 5300U offers excellent power efficiency without sacrificing performance, making it an ideal choice for mid-range laptops that prioritize a balance between battery life and performance. With a TDP of only 15W, this processor is perfect for thin and light laptop designs without the need for a bulky cooling system.
One of the main advantages of the Ryzen 3 5300U is the presence of the Radeon Vega 6 integrated GPU with 6 Compute Units running at a frequency of 1500 MHz. This GPU provides competitive graphics performance for the integrated graphics segment, capable of running light games such as Valorant, CS:GO, or Genshin Impact at low-medium settings with decent frame rates. Compared to Intel's same-generation integrated graphics, the Vega 6 shows superior performance, especially when it comes to video acceleration and light graphics tasks.
In synthetic benchmarks like Cinebench R23, the Ryzen 3 5300U is able to score around 5147 points for multi-core and 990 points for single-core, making it one of the best entry-level processors for everyday use. This performance is capable enough for a variety of computing tasks, from browsing, multimedia, to productive work such as document processing, coding, and light editing for both photos and videos. Laptops with Ryzen 3 5300U can even run Windows 11 smoothly thanks to the support of modern architecture and the latest security features such as fTPM.
Testing was conducted on a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14ALC6 device with 8GB DDR4 3200MHz dual channel RAM, Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems. The combination of the Ryzen 3 5300U processor and dual-channel RAM delivers highly responsive performance in everyday use, including when running multiple applications at once or opening a large number of browser tabs. Overall, the AMD Ryzen 3 5300U is the ideal processor for laptop users who need high performance with low power consumption and a price that remains affordable.

About Hardware Intel Core 2 Duo E7500
The Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 is a desktop processor released in 2009, based on the Wolfdale architecture, which is part of Intel’s Core 2 Duo family. It features 2 cores and 2 threads, running at a clock speed of 2.93 GHz, and operates with a 1066 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB).
Manufactured using 45nm process technology, the E7500 has a TDP of 65W, which was considered energy-efficient for its time. However, this processor does not support Hyper-Threading or Turbo Boost, meaning its performance is limited to strictly single-threaded and basic dual-threaded applications.
In terms of modern computing standards, the Core 2 Duo E7500 is outdated and performs well below current entry-level processors. Despite this, it can still be useful in legacy systems for light workloads such as basic web browsing, office documents, and 480p–720p video playback, especially when paired with a lightweight operating system.
