Ryzen 7 1700 vs Core i5-10300H comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 1700 performs better than the Core i5-10300H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10300H in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 1700 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-10300H. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 1700 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-10300H. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10300H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 1700 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-10300H. Despite this, the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-10300H outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 1700 thanks to a 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 1700 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-10300H. The Ryzen 7 1700 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 7 1700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
