Core i5-4590 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U beats the Core i5-4590 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4590 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has significantly more cores than the Core i5-4590. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-4590. It also has more threads than the Core i5-4590. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-4590 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. The Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U outputs less heat than Core i5-4590 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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. For instance, the Core i5-4590 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
