Ryzen 7 2700X vs Core i5-12600H specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 2700X performs better than the Core i5-12600H. Despite this, the Core i5-12600H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-12600H has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 2700X that has 8 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-12600H. Despite this, the Core i5-12600H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-12600H outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 2700X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Core i5-12600H also has slightly more L3 cache.
Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
