What the Ryzen 7 2800H is
The Ryzen 7 2800H brings four Zen cores with multithreading to performance laptops. It launched in May 2018 with a 3.3 GHz base and up to 3.8 GHz boost at 45 W. AMD positions it for gaming laptops that need Vega graphics without a discrete card.
Four megabytes of L3 with 2 MB of L2 feed gaming threads. The high base clock for a 45 W mobile part sustains frame rates. Eight threads cover streaming helpers beside play.
Radeon RX Vega 11 graphics at up to 1300 MHz handle 1080p gaming on the go. The process is 14 nm. DDR4-3200 in two channels feeds both CPU and graphics. Note that some lists show a 3.4 GHz base or 15 W TDP for this SKU, while CPU-Monkey lists 3.3 GHz and 45 W, and this page uses the latter.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The 2800H solders to FP5 permanently. Laptop makers tune the 45 W envelope with dual fan cooling and a 35 to 54 W configurable range. There is no socketed path.
Memory is DDR4-3200 in two channels up to 32 GB with ECC where boards wire it. Dual channel mode is critical for Vega frame rates. The How to find your CPU socket type guide shows where specs list FP5.
BGA 1528 thin laptop packages cannot take this 45 W chip. Power and contacts differ. Replacement means a new laptop.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
DDR4-3200 in two channels up to 32 GB suits gaming laptops with fast SSDs. Matched pairs give dual channel bandwidth for Vega. Start with 16 GB for current titles.
PCIe 3.0 with 12 lanes from the APU feeds NVMe plus board devices. Most gaming laptops give lanes to fast storage while Vega handles display. Splits follow the vendor layout.
Cooling is dual fan for 45 W with shared CPU and GPU pipes. Sustained loads settle near base clocks in thin bodies. No retail pattern exists.
Upgrade paths
Soldered BGA blocks upgrades. Larger SSDs and memory where slots allow extend gaming life. Repasting can lower temperatures after years of use.
Within FP5, mobile Raven Ridge SKUs with Vega 8 offer fewer GPU units on the same package family where listed. Desktop AMD Ryzen 5 2400G gives similar cores with Vega 11 on AM4 for towers.
Past FP5 newer mobile Ryzen generations need other sockets. The 2800H covers performance gaming laptops where Vega must travel.
