Ryzen 7 4800U vs Core i5-10400 specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 4800U performs better than the Core i5-10400. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10400 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 4800U has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i5-10400 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10400. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-10400 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4800U. Also, the Core i5-10400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4800U 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. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4800U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-10400. Despite this, the Core i5-10400 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 4800U.
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 4800U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
