AMD Ryzen 7 8700G 8-core AM5

82 out of 100 high confidence 36 reviews

The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G is widely praised for its strong integrated graphics (Radeon 780M), making it a great choice for budget gaming and productivity builds without a discrete GPU. Users report easy installation, good performance in games like Call of Duty at 1080p medium settings, and impressive CPU speeds for tasks like video editing. Some concerns include high temperatures under load (up to 90°C) and limited PCIe 4.0 lanes, but undervolting helps. A few defective units and a minor cosmetic issue with a fan cover were noted.

Pros
  • Powerful integrated graphics (Radeon 780M)
  • Good performance in 1080p gaming
  • Excellent CPU speed for video editing

  • High temperatures under load (up to 90°C)
  • Limited PCIe 4.0 lanes (x4 to GPU)
  • Some defective units reported
