Ryzen 3 5300U vs Core i7-10700 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-10700 is faster than the Ryzen 3 5300U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 5300U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-10700 has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 5300U that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 5300U. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-10700 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 5300U. Also, the Core i7-10700 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 5300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-10700 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Core i7-10700 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 Ryzen 3 5300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
