Core i5-7500 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-7500 beats the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U in overall performance. 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 i5-7500 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7500. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-7500 has a significantly higher clock speed than 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 i5-7500 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 5 PRO 5650U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7500. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U 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 i5-7500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
