Differences

Reasons to consider the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G

  • CPU is newer: launch date 7 year(s) 10 month(s) later
  • Processor is unlocked, an unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking
  • 2 more cores, run more applications at once: 6 vs 4
  • 8 more threads: 12 vs 4
  • Around 6% higher maximum core temperature: 95 °C vs 90°C
  • A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor: 7 nm vs 28 nm
  • Around 50% more L1 cache; more data can be stored in the L1 cache for quick access later
  • Around 50% more L2 cache; more data can be stored in the L2 cache for quick access later
  • 6.3x better performance in PassMark - Single thread mark: 3187 vs 504
  • 15.4x better performance in PassMark - CPU mark: 19800 vs 1285
