About Hardware AMD E1-1200

Released in 2012 as part of the Brazos 2.0 family, the AMD E1-1200 is a power-efficient processor aimed at entry-level laptops. It has a 2 core and 2 thread configuration with a fixed clock speed of 1.4 GHz, with no support for Turbo Core technology. Built with a 40nm fabrication process, the E1-1200 has a TDP value of 18 watts-efficient enough for portable devices that emphasize low power consumption and longer battery life. Despite its limited performance, the E1-1200 was a popular choice in its day thanks to its affordable price and ability to handle light computing needs.

One of the main advantages of the AMD E1-1200 is the integrated Radeon HD 7310 GPU, which offers better graphics performance than Intel's entry-level graphics solutions at the time. This GPU has the ability to play HD resolution videos smoothly, as well as run light games such as Counter Strike 1.6, Plants vs Zombies, or other casual games with minimum graphics settings. That said, this combination of CPU and GPU is not intended for heavy-duty work such as video editing, 3D rendering, or modern gaming. Overall performance is more optimal when used for tasks such as browsing, streaming videos, accessing social media, typing documents, as well as basic office applications.

However, it should be noted that the AMD E1-1200 is less suitable for heavy multitasking, especially in modern operating systems like Windows 10. With a low clock speed and no Boost feature, users may experience lag or limitations when opening multiple applications at once. In tests using the HP 1000 1b05au laptop, this processor was paired with 4GB DDR3 single channel RAM (2 DIMM slots) and tested on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 operating systems. The results show that the most optimal performance is achieved on Windows 7 or Windows 8, while in Windows 10 the system tends to be slow although it can still be used for basic needs. As such, the AMD E1-1200 can still be relied upon as a power-efficient and inexpensive solution for users with very light computing needs.

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.
