Ryzen 7 5800 vs Core i5-11400H specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-11400H is faster than the Ryzen 7 5800. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5800 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 5800 has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i5-11400H has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11400H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 5800 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-11400H. Also, the Ryzen 7 5800 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-11400H outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 5800 thanks to a 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 Core i5-11400H has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 7 5800. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5800 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Core i5-11400H.

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 5800 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
