Ryzen 5 4500 vs EPYC 74F3 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the EPYC 74F3 beats the Ryzen 5 4500 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 4500 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the EPYC 74F3 has significantly more cores with 9 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 4500 has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 4500. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 4500 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the EPYC 74F3. A Ryzen 5 4500 CPU outputs less heat than a EPYC 74F3 CPU because of its 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 EPYC 74F3 has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 4500. The EPYC 74F3 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 4500 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
