Today’s review is unique, we are reviewing a mobile CPU, or as AMD calls it technically, an APU. This is a CPU that combines AMD Vega graphics on the same die that is inside a laptop. We are going to review this mobile CPU in two ways, first by looking at its performance from a CPU perspective, today’s review. Then we will write a second review looking at the CPU from its integrated graphics performance.

For the purpose of this article we will refer to it as a CPU for the CPU benchmarks, and APU/GPU when referencing it in terms of its graphics performance. The CPU in question is quite an interesting, new, and relevant CPU that is exciting for brand new shipping laptops today.
