The head of this post obviously a stupid one.
I am sure the great majority of members use a kind of AMD CPU without any real issue. I am using now the
third one but it is true, these are working not in a weak laptop.
As I stated it is an artificial problem and dispute what is generated to call the attention on the poster, I think.

I conducted a 10 rounds tournament at level '3 seconds per move' in arena with Bluefish-12-W-AMD.exe and stockfish_20090216_x64_avx2.exe both ran on 8 cores and 512 hash. bluefish lost 8 out of 10 games and 2 were draw.
WOW those are some results - care to provide the PGN file?
How long did it take to run that match and what machine were you using ( how many cores) , and how many games were being run in concurrency?
Edit: Thanks - Seems I like I just broke something, Your short test and my short test confirms it.
Although your testing methods are unorthodox , they did help me identify a problem I had with SMP mode - which is now fixed.
Thank you everyone for replying and for your guidance. Most of you guys were saying that this post is irrelevant or I am doing this to get attention. I admit that I made a mistake. I should have made the title of this thread more specific. I am sure that there are so many users who use AMD cpu for chess analysis without any problem. I think its just the problem of my cpu. I should have put the title of this topic as "Stockfish Performing bad on Amd Ryzen 7 4800h cpu". I learnt a lot from this thread thank you everyone for helping me. Everything I stated was honest and true. I am not able to create the pgn file of the entire tournament as it was run on an android application called "chess for android". I will try to create one and post here.

No, it is not a problem of your cpu. Stockfish is not crashing on your cpu and the nps you are getting is normal. That's basically the end of the story. If something goes wrong in your matches, then that's because of how you are conducting the matches. It is also not unlikely that your expectations are just a bit off. Higher speed doesn't mean you won't be seeing mostly draws.

Thank you. Is there any android application other than "chess for android" to automate this? And also create the pgn file of whole tournament?

I agree you. But as I pointed out there may be lot of issue what can influence the general chess power of a PC.
So if has problems nps or any other things at first he have to investigate his machine in a service or with a clever college, who can check not only the working of the machine but the method of conducting the match.
If everything in order, the poster can turn to the community for some advices. Without these his post is no
more than a spam, a self-aiming trolling.
I do not know, where was hgm, the moderator, who like to criticize the works of others.
I am extremely sorry if someone got hurt by this topic. I never meant to criticize anyone. I am apologizing to Talkchess Community and anyone who got hurt by my words which I never wanted to. Sorry everyone. My problem is not solved but no problem. As some members pointed out, I maybe doing something wrong or it maybe just a problem to my machine due to some background application or something. I am happy that after resetting my pc atleast my machine is not loosing . I request the moderators of TC to remove this topic. Thank you everyone..

You joined the forum on September 4 , less than two weeks ago- Welcome to the forum! There is really no reason to remove the topic. You meant no harm. My only advice is try to keep your initial setup simple. CuteChess GUI is a very good GUI for running engine matches and very simple to use.
If you really want to see how matches chess are run - install fishtest on your machine - you will learn a lot. They use the cutechess cli ( client) which is headless, no GUI - which is probably the best way to run a chess match.
