Ryzen 5 5600H vs Core i7-7700 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 5600H is faster than the Core i7-7700. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-7700 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 5 5600H has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i7-7700 has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-7700. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-7700 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 5600H. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 5600H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-7700 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 5600H has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-7700. The Ryzen 5 5600H 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 5600H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
