Ryzen 7 5800H vs Ryzen 5 5500X3D comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5800H is faster than the Ryzen 5 5500X3D. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5500X3D has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 5800H has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 5 5500X3D. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800H has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Ryzen 5 5500X3D. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 5500X3D. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 5800H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 5500X3D. Also, the Ryzen 7 5800H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800H CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 5500X3D 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 Ryzen 5 5500X3D. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 5500X3D has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 5800H.

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