Ryzen 3 5300U vs Core i7-6700HQ specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 5300U performs better than the Core i7-6700HQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6700HQ in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. In terms of clock speed, the Ryzen 3 5300U and Core i7-6700HQ are identical in this regard. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 5300U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 5300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-6700HQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 5300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
