Core i5-11400F vs Ryzen 5 5600GT benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 5600GT beats the Core i5-11400F in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-11400F in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 5600GT has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-11400F. Also, the Ryzen 5 5600GT 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.

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 i5-11400F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
