Ryzen 5 4500U vs Ryzen 5 8400F comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 8400F is faster than the Ryzen 5 4500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 4500U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 5 8400F has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 8400F has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4500U. Also, the Ryzen 5 8400F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 4500U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 8400F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 8400F has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 4500U. The Ryzen 5 8400F also has significantly more L3 cache.

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.
