Overview
SummaryThe AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8500GE is a desktop processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Zen 4 architecture. It launched in 2024. Clocks run from 3.4 GHz base to 5.0 GHz boost. A 16-MB L3 cache backs the cores (3.7 MB per core). It addresses DDR5 memory up to 256 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the AM5 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (14 lanes). Rated TDP is 35 W.
Performance
12 metricsThe AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 8500GE scores 3,922 in single-core performance and 21,555 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 9,194 for overall performance, 19,502 for productivity performance, 18,915 for creator performance, 21,420 for engineering performance and 17,155 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 3,593 per core, 1,796 per thread and 616 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,554. Its performance index is 114, so its overall performance is 14% 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.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores 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 PRO 8500GE scores 62,993 in integer math, 39,232 in floating-point math, 248,596 in compression, 14,160 in cryptography, 1,234 in physics simulation, 17,991 in vector SIMD, 83 in the prime sieve and 31,168 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 7% above in integer math, 15% below in floating-point math, 9% above in compression, 23% above in cryptography, 13% above in physics simulation, 16% above in vector SIMD, 24% above in the prime sieve and 38% 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.
