Ryzen 7 5800H vs Core i5-12450HX comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-12450HX 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.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 7 5800H has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 5800H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-12450HX. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Ryzen 7 5800H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12450HX CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core i5-12450HX has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen 7 5800H. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5800H has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Core i5-12450HX.

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.
