Ryzen 5 5600H vs Core i7-10870H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-10870H is faster than the Ryzen 5 5600H. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5600H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-10870H has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 5600H has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5600H. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 5600H has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10870H. Despite this, the Core i7-10870H 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 info from our database shows that the Ryzen 5 5600H has more L2 cache than the Core i7-10870H. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 5600H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
