Ryzen 5 3400G vs Core i5-6600 comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 3400G is faster than the Core i5-6600. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-6600 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 5 3400G has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 3400G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6600. Also, the Ryzen 5 3400G has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 3400G has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-6600. Despite this, the Core i5-6600 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 3400G.
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 3400G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
