Ryzen 7 4800U vs Ryzen 5 5500 specs and performance
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 5500 is faster than the Ryzen 7 4800U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4800U in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 4800U has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 5 5500. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4800U has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Ryzen 5 5500. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5500. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 5500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4800U. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Ryzen 7 4800U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 5500 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 slightly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 5500. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5500 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.
