Ryzen 5 3600X vs Core i5-1245U comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 3600X is faster than the Core i5-1245U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-1245U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-1245U has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 3600X that has 6 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 3600X has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1245U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Core i5-1245U outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 3600X 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 Core i5-1245U has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 3600X. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 3600X has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Core i5-1245U.
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 3600X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
