Ryzen 3 5300U vs Core i7-10870H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-10870H 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 i7-10870H 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 Ryzen 3 5300U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10870H. Despite this, the Core i7-10870H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 5300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-10870H 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, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Core i7-10870H also has significantly more L3 cache.

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