Core i5-9400 vs Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-9400 beats the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-9400 has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G has 4 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G has more threads than the Core i5-9400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9400. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G has slightly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-9400. Despite this, the Core i5-9400 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G.

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 i5-9400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
