Performance score

Core i5-7600K 2017 · 4/4 cores/threads, 91 W
18.05
Ryzen 5 3400G 2019 · 4/8 cores/threads, 65 W
18.79 +4%

Ryzen 5 3400G is 4% faster than Core i5-7600K by our estimate.

Different sockets (LGA1151 and AM4) — switching between them needs a different motherboard.

The score is our own estimate from the specs (cores, threads, clocks, architecture generation), not a benchmark run. 100 = the fastest CPU in our database.

Real tests

What the test measures

Blender is a popular free 3D graphics program. The test makes the device render three ready-made 3D scenes (light, shadows, reflections) and counts how many render passes it finishes per minute. The higher the number, the faster the device handles heavy work: 3D, video editing, photo processing. On a CPU the test loads all cores at once, so it shows the chip's full power; on a graphics card it shows its compute strength.
