Ryzen 3 5425U vs Ryzen 5 5500GT comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 5425U beats the Ryzen 5 5500GT in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5500GT has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 3 5425U has slightly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 5500GT that has 3 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5500GT. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 5500GT has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 5425U. Also, the Ryzen 5 5500GT has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 5425U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 5500GT CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. 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 5 5500GT has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 5425U. The Ryzen 5 5500GT 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 5425U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
