Core i5-7400 vs Ryzen 7 6800H comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 6800H beats the Core i5-7400 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7400 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 6800H has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i5-7400 has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7400. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 6800H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7400. Also, the Ryzen 7 6800H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 6800H outputs less heat than Core i5-7400 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 7 6800H has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7400. The Ryzen 7 6800H also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 i5-7400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
