Ryzen 5 4600H vs Core i5-9500 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4600H is faster than the Core i5-9500. Despite this, the Core i5-9500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 5 4600H has more threads. According to our data, the Ryzen 5 4600H and Core i5-9500 have the same clock speed. A Ryzen 5 4600H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-9500 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 5 4600H has more L2 cache than the Core i5-9500. Despite this, the Core i5-9500 has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 4600H.

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. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 4600H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
