Core i5-10210U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U is faster than the Core i5-10210U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10210U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-10210U. Despite this, the Core i5-10210U has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-10210U. Despite this, the Core i5-10210U has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i5-10210U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
