Ryzen 5 1500X vs Core i5-1135G7 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 1500X beats the Core i5-1135G7 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-1135G7 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 1500X has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1135G7. Despite this, the Core i5-1135G7 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-1135G7 outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 1500X thanks to a significantly 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 1500X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
