as usual, nope.
so, how much performance Ryzen should pack to be considered a success? or competitive?
in general their cpus should perform to the extent where people can thing them as options to the intel counterpart.
amd cpus currently lag behind a lot in core specific performance & rely a lot on their multi core performance. also,that hunger for power, in the long run it just costs a lot more than intel to run an amd cpu.
so far they have only compared at the top end category. so, need to wait and see. but as usual, not expecting much, may be next time i will end up buying another intel.....
AMD is not at all bad. Actually Intel is bribing to put AMD down I think they are bribing benchmark software authors to be on top.I my self have used two AMD system one is ancient athlon XP 2400+ and other one Athlon X4 445 They both are performing well.
There is no heating issues in my Athlon X4 445 it always runs around 33 to 40C and performance is far better than my laptop with i5 4200 i can easily tell my AMD athlon X4 is lightning fast it boots up very fast mutlitasking is brilliant.
My laptop can only able to run upto 4 VMs that too with 8GB RAM while i can simultaneously run 6VMs with AMD athlon X4 with 5GB of RAM.
There are some article over Internet stating Intel are bribing to get in top in benchmarks.

Eh. The laptop CPUs are much weaker than their desktop counterparts. Wrong comparison.
Intel i5 4200 doesn't performs like Athlon X4 445 or close and yeah its a very old CPU but see this Intel Core i5 4200U vs AMD Athlon II X3 44
Lol! According to that site Intel i5 is winner.
What's the exact model numbers you have?
i5 4210U.
and the AMD one?? You say Athlon X4 and show bench of X3
Its Amd athlon X3 445 but I unlocked 1 core through my gigabyte BIOS and made it quad core.

I could tell you weren't saying the whole thing. First of all cpuboss is not a site to refer to. And it's taking power consumption and graphics processing(AMD has none) into account. Hence the much higher score for i5.
A proper comparison:
PassMark - CPU Performance Compariso
The overall performance of i5 you are getting is probably bottle-necked by the laptop's other low power components like slower RAM.
Now see how it compares to a desktop class processor of the same generation
