Ryzen 7 1700X vs Ryzen 7 5700U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 1700X beats the Ryzen 7 5700U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 1700X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5700U outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 1700X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Ryzen 7 1700X 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 1700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
