Core i5-9400 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G performs better than the Core i5-9400. Despite this, the Core i5-9400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-9400 has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G has 4 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G has more threads than the Core i5-9400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9400. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G has more L2 cache than the Core i5-9400. Despite this, the Core i5-9400 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 3350G.

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.
