Ryzen 7 5800X vs Ryzen 7 5700X benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5800X is faster than the Ryzen 7 5700X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5700X in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 5800X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5700X. Also, the Ryzen 7 5800X has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5700X outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 5800X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
