Ryzen 5 2500U vs Core i5-7400T benchmarks
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-7400T is faster than the Ryzen 5 2500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 2500U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 5 2500U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-7400T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 2500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 2500U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 2500U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-7400T 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 2500U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-7400T. Despite this, the Core i5-7400T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 2500U.
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 2500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
