Ryzen 5 5500U vs Core i7-1185G7 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 5500U performs better than the Core i7-1185G7. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-1185G7 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 5 5500U has significantly more cores than the Core i7-1185G7. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 5500U has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i7-1185G7. It also has more threads than the Core i7-1185G7. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 5500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
