Core i5-9500T vs Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 performs better than the Core i5-9500T. Despite this, the Core i5-9500T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-9500T has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 that has 4 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 has more threads than the Core i5-9500T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9500T. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i5-9500T CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-9500T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
