Core i5-10400 vs Ryzen 5 7430U specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Core i5-10400 beats the Ryzen 5 7430U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 7430U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-10400 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 7430U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 7430U outputs less heat than Core i5-10400 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 7430U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-10400. The Ryzen 5 7430U also has slightly more L3 cache.
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i5-10400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
