The chips consume about 15 watts of power. The 2-core or 4-core 3250C is made with an even older 14nm process. The Ryzen 4-core or 8-core 3700C and 3500C chips are made with an older 12-nanometer manufacturing process. AMD said the Ryzen 7 3700C Mobile Processor offers up to 251% better graphics performance compared to previous-generation AMD Chromebooks, up to 104% faster office productivity performance, and up to 152% better photo editing performance.
