Ryzen 5 4600U vs Core i5-11260H specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-11260H 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.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-11260H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4600U. A Ryzen 5 4600U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-11260H CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
