Ryzen 7 5700G vs Core i7-11700KF comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11700KF beats the Ryzen 7 5700G in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5700G 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 5700G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-11700KF. Despite this, the Core i7-11700KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5700G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-11700KF CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and 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.
