The AMD Ryzen 5 2400G is a desktop processor with 4 cores, released in 2018 at an MSRP of $169. It is part of the Ryzen 5 lineup, using the Ryzen 2000 platform, and fits the AM4 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Zen" architecture. Thanks to AMD Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT), each core can handle two instruction streams simultaneously, yielding a total of 8 threads for improved parallelism. The Ryzen 5 2400G has a base clock of 3.6 GHz and can boost up to 3.9 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. AMD manufactures the "Zen" silicon on a 14nm process node. The multiplier is unlocked, making overclocking straightforward. This processor supports DDR4 memory. With a TDP of 65W, the Ryzen 5 2400G is an efficient chip suitable for modest cooling solutions. Integrated graphics are provided by the Radeon RX Vega 11 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy consists of 96KB/core of L1, 2MB of L2, and 4MB of L3 cache.
Raven Ridge APU — uses Zen 1 cores (not Zen+) despite the 2000-series name. Radeon RX Vega 11 iGPU with 11 CUs. Strong integrated graphics for its era.
