Core i7-3770 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U beats the Core i7-3770 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3770 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-3770 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U. Also, the Core i7-3770 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U outputs less heat than Core i7-3770 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-3770. Despite this, the Core i7-3770 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U.

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 i7-3770 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
