Core i5-4690K vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4690K performs better than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i5-4690K that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-4690K. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4690K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U outputs less heat than Core i5-4690K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i5-4690K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
