AMD Ryzen AI 5 330: 4 Cores, Radeon 820M, and a 50 TOPS NPU

The AMD Ryzen AI 5 330 is a quad-core processor from the Ryzen AI 300 family, based on the Zen 5/Zen 5c architecture. The processor is built on a 4nm Krackan Point die and includes one Zen 5 core and three Zen 5c cores. It has 4 cores and 8 threads in total, while the integrated NPU delivers up to 50 TOPS.

CPU Performance

The Ryzen AI 5 330 has a base clock speed of 2.0 GHz. The Zen 5 core boosts to 4.5 GHz, while the three Zen 5c cores boost to 3.4 GHz. It has 4 MB of L2 cache and 8 MB of L3 cache.

In Geekbench 6 Single, the Ryzen AI 5 330 scores approximately 2.4-2.6 thousand points.

Results in Actual Devices

Device	Geekbench 6 Single	Geekbench 6 Multi	Price
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 16AKP10	2576	7814	≈ €700
Acer Aspire 14 AI A14-61M	2530	7775	≈ €720

The difference between the two laptops is minimal-46 points in Single Core and 39 points in Multi Core.

The six-core Ryzen AI 5 340 scores around 2782 points in Geekbench 6 Single and 10765 points in Multi, with most of the gap appearing in the multithreaded test.

Cinebench 2024

In Cinebench 2024, the Ryzen AI 5 330 scores around 106 points in single-threaded mode and 519 points when using all cores.

PassMark

The Ryzen AI 5 330’s average PassMark score is approximately 12,692 CPU Mark points and 3,481 Single Thread points.

Radeon 820M

The Radeon 820M includes 2 graphics units and operates at up to 2.8 GHz.

In the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 16AKP10, the Radeon 820M scores around 786 points in 3DMark Time Spy Graphics.

Integrated graphics	Device	3DMark Time Spy Graphics
Radeon 860M	Lenovo IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 14AKP10	2638
Radeon 840M	Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 14AKP10	1705
Radeon 820M	Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 16AKP10	786

The Radeon 840M scores more than twice as many points, while the Radeon 860M scores more than three times as many.

NPU and AI

The Ryzen AI 5 330 is equipped with an XDNA 2 unit delivering up to 50 TOPS. The processor’s total claimed AI performance reaches 56 TOPS.

Memory and Platform

The processor supports DDR5-5600 and LPDDR5X-8000 in dual-channel mode. The maximum supported memory capacity is 256 GB.

It provides 14 PCIe 4.0 lanes and USB4 with speeds of up to 40 Gbps.

The standard TDP is 28 W, while the configurable range is 15-28 W.

Conclusion

The Ryzen AI 5 330 is not designed for heavy multithreaded workloads or gaming on integrated graphics: its four cores and Radeon 820M quickly reveal their limitations. However, its single-threaded performance remains high, while the 50 TOPS XDNA 2 NPU matches that of more expensive Ryzen AI 300 models.

At a laptop price of around €700, the Ryzen AI 5 330 looks like a good choice for studying, office work, web browsing, programming, and everyday tasks. For that price, buyers get a modern Zen 5 platform, Copilot+ support, and a fast NPU without paying extra for additional CPU cores and more powerful graphics.

If the price approaches €850-900, the advantage disappears: laptops with the six-core Ryzen AI 5 340 and Radeon 840M are available in this range, offering noticeably higher performance in both multithreaded workloads and integrated graphics.
