AMD Ryzen 4000 series mobility processors launched on 16th March and since have shown up at various retailers although in limited quantities. The full swing of laptops is still yet to appear over the retail channels but it looks like you can find some pretty sweet deals over in the APAC region which offer much better value than competing laptops based on Intel's Core mobility chips.

So we are looking at Chinese retailers JD and Tmall, both of whom have listed the same ASUS TUF Gaming model, the A15, which is branded as a limited edition model and available 6599 CNY that converts to 930 USD. This is an absolute steal if you consider the specifications which this laptop packs and with that said, let's do talk about the specs that you get on this laptop.

AMD Ryzen 7 4800H CPU Specifications

The two main components of the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 notebook are its CPU and GPU. So let's start with the CPU which is a Ryzen 7 4800H. This chip packs 8 cores and 16 threads based on its new 7nm Zen 2 core architecture. The CPU operates at a base clock of 2.9 GHz and a boost clock which is set to 4.2 GHz. The chip carries 4 MB of L2 and 8 MB of L3 cache for a combined cache of 12 MB. The Ryzen 7 4800H is configured at 45W but also has a configurable TDP down to 35W. The special Ryzen 7 4800HS variant is the more binned variant which sustains higher clocks at 35W TDP as standard.

While it's not the flagship, a spot held by the Ryzen 9 4900H/HS, the Ryzen 7 4800H is a powerful mobility processor, tackling the likes of desktop chips such as the 8 core Ryzen 7 2700X and the Core i7-9700K. That's a stellar performance coming from a 45W mobile CPU when compared to the near 100W TDP of the desktop parts.

While it shouldn't matter on this specific notebook, the CPU also carries the enhanced 7nm Vega graphics core with 7 GPU cores or 448 stream processors. The GPU is clocked at 1600 MHz but it may come in handy to offload the non-heavy workloads from the discrete GPU over to the iGPU to conserve power.
