AMD Ryzen 5 4500U vs Intel Core i7-9700F

Ryzen 5 4500U vs Core i7-9700F specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700F performs better than the Ryzen 5 4500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 4500U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-9700F has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 5 4500U. Indeed, the Core i7-9700F has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Ryzen 5 4500U. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 4500U. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-9700F has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4500U. A Ryzen 5 4500U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-9700F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 4500U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-9700F. Despite this, the Core i7-9700F has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 4500U.

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