Core i5-11400H vs Ryzen 5 8500G comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-11400H performs better than the Ryzen 5 8500G. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 8500G 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 Ryzen 5 8500G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-11400H. Also, the Ryzen 5 8500G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-11400H CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 8500G CPU because of its 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 Core i5-11400H has slightly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 8500G. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 8500G has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Core i5-11400H.
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 i5-11400H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
