Ryzen 5 5500U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 5500U is faster than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 5500U. Also, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a slightly higher turbo speed. 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 data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U also has significantly more L3 cache.

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.
