Ryzen 5 4600H vs Ryzen 5 5500U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 4600H is faster than the Ryzen 5 5500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5500U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 4600H has a much higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 5500U. The Ryzen 5 5500U outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 4600H thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache and 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 4600H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
