Overview

If you are looking for an affordable laptop, HP has got some great options to choose from. HP NOTEBOOK 15-EQ2179AU is one of those options. With a decent processor, customizable RAM and storage configuration, micro-edge display, and lightweight design, it will keep up with your work and study tasks quite well.

Processor

The HP NOTEBOOK 15S-EQ2179AU is equipped with the AMD Ryzen 3 5300U (not to be confused with the A4-5300 from 2012) is a processor for thin and light laptops based on the Lucienne generation. The R3 5300U integrates four cores (quad core) based on the Zen 2 microarchitecture. They are clocked at 2.6 (guaranteed base clock) to 3.8 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT for a total of 8 threads. The chip is manufactured on the modern 7 nm TSMC process. Compared to the older and similar Ryzen 3 4300U (Renoir), the Ryzen 3 5300U offers SMT and slightly higher clock speeds. The faster Ryzen 3 5400U is based on the newer Zen 3 architecture. See our hub page on the Renoir Processors for more information on the Lucienne / Renoir architecture.

Performance

The average 5300U in our database matches Intel Core i5-11300H, Core i7-11375H and also AMD Ryzen 5 4500U in multi-thread performance, making it an outstandingly good processor for mid-range laptops. The Ryzen 3 has a default TDP of 15 W, a value that laptop manufacturers are allowed to change to anything between 10 W and 25 W with clock speeds and performance changing correspondingly. Last but not the least, the 7 nm TSMC process this CPU is built with makes for very decent energy efficiency.

Body and Design

All of the above-mentioned components are encased in a Natural Silver chassis. It has a signature HP logo on the top, a full-sized keyboard, a separate numeric keypad, a spacious touchpad, and plenty of useful ports. Not only this, weighing only 1.69 kg, it is lightweight and portable. All of these details make it an in-demand entry-level laptop.
