Ryzen 5 5500U vs Core i5-11320H comparison
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 5500U beats the Core i5-11320H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-11320H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 5500U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i5-11320H that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11320H. A Ryzen 5 5500U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-11320H CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 5500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
