Core i5-7500 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G is faster than the Core i5-7500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7500 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-7500. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7500. Despite this, the Core i5-7500 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 3400G.

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 i5-7500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
