Ryzen 5 3500 vs Core i7-9700K specs and performance
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-9700K is faster than the Ryzen 5 3500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 3500 in all gaming tests too.
With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-9700K has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 3500 has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 3500. In terms of clock speed, the Ryzen 5 3500 and Core i7-9700K are identical in this regard. A Ryzen 5 3500 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-9700K 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 3500 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700K. The Ryzen 5 3500 also has slightly more L3 cache.
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. For instance, the Ryzen 5 3500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
