Ryzen 7 5800U vs Core i5-12450H specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5800U is faster than the Core i5-12450H. Despite this, the Core i5-12450H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 7 5800U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-12450H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12450H 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 5800U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-12450H. The Ryzen 7 5800U 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 5800U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
