Summary benchmark resultsAs a percentage of the maximum value based on a sample from the entire base of all processors
Processor Benchmark
| Snapdragon 850 | 51% |
Ryzen 5 3500U | 52% |
This parameter shows the performance of the processors in single-threaded and multi-threaded mode. In this comparison, Ryzen 5 3500U is 1% better than Snapdragon 850. The data source is several popular tests. More detailed information of the benchmarks is below.
Gaming performance
Summary result of all game benchmarks.| Snapdragon 850 | 51% |
Ryzen 5 3500U | 51% |
The maximum result in this parameter is 100 percent, which is the performance of the most powerful processor at the moment. And of course, this is a server processor, on which no one will play games. Because this processor costs several tens of thousands of dollars. Therefore, if you think that the selected CPU has a small game result, just look at the FPS that it produces in real games in the summary table below.
List of less popular games in which CPU comparisons were performed: Half-Life: Alyx, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG), Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS GO), Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Control, DOTA 2A, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Hitman 3, Battlefield V, League of Legends (LOL), NBA 2K20, Metro Exodus, Ghostrunner, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, Forza Horizon 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, Monster Hunter World.
Gaming benchmark| Fortnite | 90.2 | 91.3 | | Valorant | 102.5 | 103.7 | | Cyberpunk 2077 | 57.4 | 58.1 | | Apex Legends | 96.3 | 97.5 | | Call of Duty Warzone | 76.8 | 77.8 | | Overwatch | 83.0 | 84.0 | | Red Dead Redemption 2 | 70.7 | 71.6 | | DOOM Eternal | 51.2 | 51.9 | | Warzone | 79.9 | 80.9 | | Assassin's Creed | 86.1 | 87.1 | | Valheim | 85.0 | 86.1 |
The numbers in this table indicate the maximum FPS that was received on the device with the corresponding processor. Depending on the configuration of the computer (RAM size and Video Card) and graphics quality settings (Ultra, Medium, Normal), the results may differ quite significantly. We recommend that you better study the results of the Cinebench, GeekBench and Passmark becnmarks.
The tested computers not only did they have different video cards and different amounts of RAM. But users also tested them at different screen resolutions: 2K, FullHD or 4K. So the game benchmark data is approximate. But all video cards met the average system requirements of games. You will get more accurate information about how powerful the processor will be in games, if you get acquainted with the benchmarks that are made with the same video card that is installed in your computer.
Power consumption
| Snapdragon 850 | 200% |
Ryzen 5 3500U | 209% |
To make a finishing choice on which processor is better, you should also consider the generation of its core. The newer the processor generation, the better its performance in games and benchmarks, as well as its energy efficiency. In this case the Ryzen 5 3500U is more energy efficient than the Snapdragon 850 since it has less power consumption: 8W vs. 15W. Power consumption is especially important for laptops. And TDP should be taken into account when choosing a processor cooling system. It is necessary to calculate so that the TDP data specified in the cooler specification is greater than the TDP of the compared processor.
Software benchmarksIf you plan to use the processor not only for gaming, but also for machine learning, programming, video editing or video rendering, streaming, then first of all you need to pay attention to the performance in multi-threaded mode. In this mode, to achieve maximum efficiency, the CPU turns on all threads and cores that it has. You will learn this data from the benchmark tables below. Before using the data from these tests, be sure to make sure that the program that you are going to use on your computer can work in multi-threaded mode. Since there are still many programs that use only one core to run, and all the advantages of multi-core mode are unused.

Comparison of specifications
In the specification comparison table, the most helpful will be the release date of the processor and the possibility of overclocking it. The newer the processor, the longer it will last you. And the easier it will be to upgrade the system in the future. The same benefits from the presence of overclocking. When the processor can be overclocked, thereby increasing its performance, then it will continue to maintain maximum FPS in the newest games. It turns out that there is no longer a need to buy a new CPU to enjoy the games any longer. The savings are obvious!
