Ryzen 5 3600 vs Core i7-10850H comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 3600 performs better than the Core i7-10850H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-10850H in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3600 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10850H. Despite this, the Core i7-10850H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-10850H outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 3600 thanks to a 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 3600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-10850H. The Ryzen 5 3600 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 3600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
