Ryzen 7 4700U vs Core i5-10400 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-10400 is faster than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4700U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 4700U has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i5-10400 has 6 cores. Despite this, the Core i5-10400 has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-10400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U. Also, the Core i5-10400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-10400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 7 4700U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-10400. Despite this, the Core i5-10400 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 7 4700U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
