Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U performs better than the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 PRO 1700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
