Core i5-7600K vs Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G performs better than the Core i5-7600K. Despite this, the Core i5-7600K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-7600K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G. Also, the Core i5-7600K has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G outputs less heat than Core i5-7600K thanks to a slightly 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 2400G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7600K. Despite this, the Core i5-7600K has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Core i5-7600K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
