Ryzen 5 3500X vs Ryzen 5 6600H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 6600H is faster than the Ryzen 5 3500X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 3500X in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 5 6600H has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 3500X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 6600H. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 6600H outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 3500X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Ryzen 5 3500X also has significantly more 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 3500X has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
