Core i5-11400F vs Ryzen Z1 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen Z1 is faster than the Core i5-11400F. Despite this, the Core i5-11400F has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 Z1 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-11400F. Also, the Ryzen Z1 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen Z1 outputs less heat than Core i5-11400F thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i5-11400F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
