FX-9800P Details

The AMD FX-9800P sits in the lower tier of modern mobile processors, offering a modest performance profile that reflects its position as an older design. Released in 2016, this mobile CPU is part of AMD's FX lineup, built on the Bristol Ridge architecture and manufactured on a 22 nm process by GlobalFoundries. While the FX-9800P was once positioned as a budget-friendly option for light computing and multimedia tasks, it now stands as a relic in the face of today’s high-performance mobile processors. Its single-core performance places it in the middle of the pack among older CPUs, with a single-core score of 4137 and an overall score of 4223, ranking it #1637 out of 2060 processors in the database. While it may not compete with contemporary mobile chips, it still holds its own against several mid-range and older mobile processors, particularly in single-threaded workloads.

The FX-9800P features two physical cores with four threads enabled via AMD's Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) technology, allowing it to handle basic multitasking efficiently. Clock speeds range from a base of 1.8 GHz to a turbo frequency of 2.8 GHz, supported by a 17 W TDP that makes it suitable for thin and light laptops. It supports up to 32 GB of DDR3/DDR3L-1333/1600 memory across a dual-channel interface, with a maximum memory bandwidth of 25.6 GB/s. The processor integrates Radeon R7 8CU graphics, delivering a base frequency of 350 MHz and a burst frequency of 1150 MHz, capable of driving up to three displays. It supports a wide range of instruction sets, including AVX, AVX2, SSE4.1, and SSE4.2, enabling it to run modern software and virtualization tasks efficiently.

Despite its dated architecture, the FX-9800P remains competitive with several older processors. In multicore performance, it scores 4353, placing it at #1568 of 2060, outperforming several Intel Core i5 and AMD A-series processors from the same era. However, it falls short of more powerful mobile chips, such as the Core i5-540M and A10-4600M, which have slightly lower scores. Its overall performance is best suited for basic productivity tasks, web browsing, and media playback, but it struggles with modern, compute-intensive applications like video editing or 3D rendering. The integrated GPU provides adequate graphics performance for light gaming and multimedia use but cannot keep up with modern discrete solutions.

As of March 2026, the FX-9800P is no longer relevant in mainstream computing. Its low power consumption and integrated graphics make it suitable for entry-level devices or secondary systems, but its age and limited performance prevent it from being a viable option for demanding users. While it was once a competitive mobile processor, it now serves as a historical benchmark in the evolution of AMD’s mobile computing strategy. For users seeking performance, upgrading to a modern CPU is strongly recommended.
