Ryzen 5 4600G vs Ryzen 7 4700U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4600G is faster than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4700U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 4700U has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 4600G that has 6 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 4600G has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700U. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 4600G has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4700U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 4700U outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 4600G thanks to a 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 7 4700U has slightly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 4600G. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 4600G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
