Core i7-8665U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U is faster than the Core i7-8665U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8665U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i7-8665U that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-8665U. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8665U. Despite this, the Core i7-8665U 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.

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 i7-8665U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
