Ryzen 5 4500U vs Ryzen Threadripper 3970X specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4500U is faster than the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X has significantly more cores with 32 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 4500U has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 4500U. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4500U. A Ryzen 5 4500U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 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 Ryzen Threadripper 3970X has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 4500U. The Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 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. For instance, the Ryzen 5 4500U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
