Ryzen 7 2700U vs Core i5-6402P specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 2700U beats the Core i5-6402P in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-6402P has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 7 2700U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-6402P has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 2700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 2700U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-6402P CPU because of its 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 2700U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-6402P. Despite this, the Core i5-6402P has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 2700U.
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 2700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
