Core i7-2600 vs Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U beats the Core i7-2600 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-2600 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-2600 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U outputs less heat than Core i7-2600 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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. Indeed, the Core i7-2600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
