Ryzen 5 4600U vs Core i5-10500 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-10500 is faster than the Ryzen 5 4600U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 4600U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-10500 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4600U. A Ryzen 5 4600U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-10500 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 4600U has more L2 cache than the Core i5-10500. Despite this, the Core i5-10500 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 4600U.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 4600U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
