Ryzen 5 3500U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U is faster than the Ryzen 5 3500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 3500U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 3500U that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 3500U. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 3500U. Also, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U 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 info from our database shows that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 3500U. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U also has significantly 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
