Ryzen 9 5900HS vs Core i5-10600 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 5900HS is faster than the Core i5-10600. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10600 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 9 5900HS has slightly more cores than the Core i5-10600. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 5900HS has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-10600. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10600. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-10600 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 9 5900HS. A Ryzen 9 5900HS CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-10600 CPU because of its 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 9 5900HS has more L2 cache than the Core i5-10600. The Ryzen 9 5900HS also has slightly more 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 9 5900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
