Core i7-7800X vs Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-7800X is faster than the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-7800X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. The Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U outputs less heat than Core i7-7800X 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 i7-7800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
