About Hardware AMD C-60
Released in 2011, the AMD C-60 is a power-efficient processor from the Ontario series built on the Bobcat architecture. It has 2 cores and 2 threads, with a base speed of 1.0 GHz that can be increased to 1.33 GHz through Turbo Core technology. Designed specifically for portable devices such as netbooks and ultraportable laptops, the C-60 is focused on power efficiency and long battery life rather than high performance. With a TDP of just 9 watts, this processor enables ultra-thin and lightweight laptop designs without the need for complex active cooling systems. The main advantage of the C-60 is its extremely low power consumption, making it an attractive solution for users who need a lightweight computing device for daily activities with high mobility.
The AMD C-60 is also equipped with an integrated Radeon HD 6290 GPU, which has 80 shader cores and supports DirectX 11. Despite its modest specifications, this GPU is sufficient for multimedia purposes such as HD video playback, light graphics rendering, and old-school games with minimal graphics settings. However, overall, the performance of the AMD C-60 is limited and only suitable for light tasks such as browsing, typing documents, and using basic office applications. This processor will feel slow when used for heavy multitasking, modern software installation, or complex web-based applications. In tests using an Acer Aspire One 522 paired with 2GB DDR3 RAM and Windows 7 operating system, the processor was able to provide a decent user experience for basic needs, but was less responsive when compared to mainstream processors of the same generation. Even so, the AMD C-60 remains a viable solution for low-cost, power-efficient devices of its time.

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.
