Ryzen 5 1400 vs Core i7-3770K comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-3770K is faster than the Ryzen 5 1400. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 1400 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-3770K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 1400. Also, the Core i7-3770K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 1400 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-3770K CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 5 1400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
