Ryzen 5 3500 vs Ryzen 7 6800H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 6800H 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 Ryzen 7 6800H 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. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 3500 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 6800H. The Ryzen 7 6800H outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 3500 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 7 6800H has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 3500. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Ryzen 5 3500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
