Ryzen 5 7430U vs Ryzen 5 7640HS benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 7430U is faster than the Ryzen 5 7640HS. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 7640HS in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 7640HS has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 7430U. Also, the Ryzen 5 7640HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 7430U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 7640HS CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. 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 7640HS has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 7430U. 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 7430U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
