Ryzen 5 1400 vs Core i7-4800MQ specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 1400 is faster than the Core i7-4800MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4800MQ in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 1400 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-4800MQ. Despite this, the Core i7-4800MQ has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4800MQ outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 1400 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 1400 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-4800MQ. The Ryzen 5 1400 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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