AMD Ryzen 3 5300G vs Intel Core i5-9400F

Ryzen 3 5300G vs Core i5-9400F specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 3 5300G is faster than the Core i5-9400F. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-9400F in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-9400F has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 3 5300G. Indeed, the Core i5-9400F has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Ryzen 3 5300G. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 5300G has more threads than the Core i5-9400F. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 3 5300G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-9400F. Also, the Ryzen 3 5300G 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 3 5300G has slightly more L2 cache than the Core i5-9400F. Despite this, the Core i5-9400F has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 5300G.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 5300G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
