Core i7-8565U vs Ryzen 5 7520U specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 7520U beats the Core i7-8565U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8565U 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 7520U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8565U. Despite this, the Core i7-8565U has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 7520U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-8565U. Despite this, the Core i7-8565U has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 7520U.
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. Indeed, the Core i7-8565U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
