Core i5-3470 vs Ryzen 5 5500 specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 5500 performs better than the Core i5-3470. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3470 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 5 5500 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-3470. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 5500 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-3470. It also has more threads than the Core i5-3470. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 5500 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-3470. Also, the Ryzen 5 5500 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 5500 outputs less heat than Core i5-3470 thanks to a slightly 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. For instance, the Core i5-3470 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
