Ryzen 5 1600 vs Core i5-11300H specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 1600 performs better than the Core i5-11300H. Despite this, the Core i5-11300H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 5 1600 has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i5-11300H has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11300H. The Core i5-11300H outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 1600 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 1600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
