AMD Ryzen 5 4500U vs Intel Core i3-6006U

Ryzen 5 4500U vs Core i3-6006U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4500U is faster than the Core i3-6006U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-6006U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 5 4500U has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i3-6006U has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-6006U. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 4500U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-6006U. 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.

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 4500U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
