Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U vs Core i5-1235U comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U performs better than the Core i5-1235U. Despite this, the Core i5-1235U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-1235U has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U that has 6 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1235U. Despite this, the Core i5-1235U 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 PRO 5650U has more L2 cache than the Core i5-1235U. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U also has slightly more 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 PRO 5650U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
