Ryzen 7 2700 vs Ryzen 7 4700U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 2700 beats the Ryzen 7 4700U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 7 2700 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 4700U outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 2700 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Ryzen 7 2700 also has significantly 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 7 2700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
