AMD® Ryzen™ 5 225

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 is a laptop processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Zen 4 architecture. It launched in Jun 2026. Clocks run from 4.1 GHz base to 4.8 GHz boost. A 16-MB L3 cache backs the cores (3.7 MB per core). It supports DDR5 memory. The chip drops into the FP8 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (20 lanes). Rated TDP is 45 W.

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 scores 3,728 in single-core performance and 24,064 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 9,472 for overall performance, 20,861 for productivity performance, 19,946 for creator performance, 23,914 for engineering performance and 17,200 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 4,011 per core, 2,005 per thread and 535 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,412. Its performance index is 117, so its overall performance is 17% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the AMD Ryzen 5 225 scores 77,284 in integer math, 47,089 in floating-point math, 275,174 in compression, 16,573 in cryptography, 1,258 in physics simulation, 20,167 in vector SIMD, 87 in the prime sieve and 33,704 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 31% above in integer math, 3% above in floating-point math, 21% above in compression, 44% above in cryptography, 15% above in physics simulation, 30% above in vector SIMD, 30% above in the prime sieve and 49% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 has 6 physical cores and runs 12 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 4.10 GHz and boosts up to 4.80 GHz.

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 is a laptop processor, belongs to the AMD Ryzen 5 family, uses the Zen 4 architecture, carries the codename Hawk Point and is manufactured on a 4 nm process. It launched in Jun 2026.

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 has 384 KB of L1 cache, 6 MB of L2 cache and 16 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 22.4 MB of cache, or 3.73 MB per core. Each core has 1 MB of private L2 cache.

The AMD Ryzen 5 225 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 384 KB, L2 at 6 MB and L3 at 16 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 72% of the cache listed here.
