Ryzen 3 4300U vs Core i5-9400T comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-9400T beats the Ryzen 3 4300U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 4300U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-9400T has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 3 4300U. Indeed, the Core i5-9400T has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Ryzen 3 4300U. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 4300U. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 4300U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9400T. Also, the Ryzen 3 4300U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 4300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-9400T CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 4300U has slightly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-9400T. Despite this, the Core i5-9400T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 4300U.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 4300U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
