Ryzen 5 4500U vs Core i5-8365U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4500U is faster than the Core i5-8365U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-8365U 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 i5-8365U has 4 cores. Despite this, the Core i5-8365U has more threads than the Ryzen 5 4500U. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 4500U has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-8365U. 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.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 5 4500U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
