Ryzen 7 5700G vs Core i5-11600KF benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-11600KF is faster than the Ryzen 7 5700G. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5700G in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 5700G has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i5-11600KF that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11600KF. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-11600KF has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5700G. Also, the Core i5-11600KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5700G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-11600KF 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 5700G has slightly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-11600KF. The Ryzen 7 5700G also has slightly more L3 cache.

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. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5700G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
