Comparison of the two processors

The processors from this comparison are models of the Zen 3 architecture with the code name "Cezanne". These are processors for the desktop area based on the AM4 socket. The market launch took place in the second quarter of 2021.

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is a processor with 6 physical cores that supports hyperthreading and thus has 12 threads. The standard clock of the processor is 3.90 gigahertz and the maximum turbo clock is 4.40 gigahertz. The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G has 8 physical cores and also supports hyperthreading, which means that the number of threads is 16. The base clock frequency is slightly lower at 3.80 gigahertz, but the maximum turbo clock is slightly higher at 4.60 gigahertz. Like all desktop processors from AMD, these two models are overclockable.

Both processors have an internal graphics unit. The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G uses the AMD Radeon 7 Graphics and the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G uses the somewhat more powerful AMD Radeon Graphics 8. Both iGPUs are based on the Renoir architecture and are manufactured using the 7 nanometer process. The Radeon 7 Graphics clocks at 1.90 gigahertz, has 7 execution units (448 shaders) and achieves an FP32 computing power (single precision) of 1702 gigaflops. The Radeon 8 Graphics has 8 execution units with 512 shaders, clocks at 2.00 gigahertz and achieves an FP32 processing power of 2048 gigaflops.

Both processors support modules of the type DDR4-3200 in the main memory and up to 64 gigabytes of main memory can be operated via the 2 available memory channels. At 3.00 megabytes, the L2 cache of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is slightly smaller than that of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G, here it is 4 megabytes. However, the L3 cache is again identical to 16.00 megabytes.
