About the Intel Core i5-6400T CPU

The Intel Core i5-6400T is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The i5-6400T is compatible with Socket 1151 LGA motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD Graphics 530 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Core i5-6400T has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 256 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 6 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i5-6400T features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2200.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2800.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Core i5-6400T includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD Graphics 530. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The Core i5-6400T has the 438th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 768 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 14.31% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X.

About the AMD Ryzen 7 7840S CPU

The AMD Ryzen 7 7840S is a 8-core (16-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The 7840S is compatible with FP7 FP7r2 FP8 motherboards and is fabricated on a 4 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Ryzen 7 7840S has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 512 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 8 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 16 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Ryzen 7 7840S features 8 total cores which can process 16 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3800.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 5100.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Ryzen 7 7840S does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

Benchmark Performance

The Ryzen 7 7840S has the 80th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 768 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 54.35% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X.
