Ryzen 7 5800H vs Core i5-11600KF comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-11600KF performs better than the Ryzen 7 5800H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5800H in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 5800H has slightly more cores than the Core i5-11600KF. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800H has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-11600KF. 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 5800H. Also, the Core i5-11600KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800H 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. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800H has slightly more L2 cache than the Core i5-11600KF. The Ryzen 7 5800H also has slightly more L3 cache.

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