Ryzen 5 5600U vs Ryzen 7 5700G benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5700G beats the Ryzen 5 5600U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 5600U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 5700G has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 5600U has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5600U. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 5700G has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 5600U. Also, the Ryzen 7 5700G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 5600U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 7 5700G CPU because of its significantly 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 7 5700G has slightly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 5600U. 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 5600U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
