Ryzen 7 3700U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 3700U is faster than the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3700U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 and 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 3700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
