Ryzen 5 5600H vs Core i7-7800X specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 5600H is faster than the Core i7-7800X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-7800X in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-7800X has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 5600H. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5600H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 5600H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-7800X CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
