Ryzen 5 5600G vs Core i7-3770 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 5600G performs better than the Core i7-3770. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3770 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 5 5600G has significantly more cores than the Core i7-3770. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 5600G has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i7-3770. It also has more threads than the Core i7-3770. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 5600G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-3770. Also, the Ryzen 5 5600G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 5600G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-3770 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 5600G has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-3770. The Ryzen 5 5600G also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 5600G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
