AMD Ryzen 5 5600G vs Intel Core i9-9900KF

Ryzen 5 5600G vs Core i9-9900KF specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-9900KF is faster than the Ryzen 5 5600G. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 5600G in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i9-9900KF has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 5 5600G. Indeed, the Core i9-9900KF has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Ryzen 5 5600G. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5600G. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 5600G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-9900KF. Despite this, the Core i9-9900KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 5600G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i9-9900KF CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 5600G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i9-9900KF. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 5600G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
