Ryzen Z1 vs Core i5-12600H comparison
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen Z1 beats the Core i5-12600H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-12600H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-12600H has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Ryzen Z1 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen Z1. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen Z1 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-12600H. Also, the Ryzen Z1 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen Z1 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12600H 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 Z1 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-12600H. Despite this, the Core i5-12600H has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen Z1.
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 Z1 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
