日本[Comparison] AMD Ryzen 5 4500U vs Intel Core i7-10510U – Intel faces total annihilation
In this comparison, we have the classic rumble – AMD vs Intel. We have the newer AMD Ryzen 5 4500U – part of the new Ryzen line of processors, versus the Intel Core i7-10510U which was released in 2019.
Both CPUs are a popular choice for mobile platforms and we are going to see which CPU does better in our series of tests.
More detailed specs here: AMD Ryzen 5 4500U / Intel Core i7-10510U
Specifications
In summary, the main difference between these processors is the much higher max frequency of the Core i7-10510 – 4.90 GHz versus 4.00 GHz, respectively. On the other side, the Ryzen 5 4500U has a higher Base clock (2.30 GHz vs 1.80 GHz), and more physical cores – 6 vs 4, while the Core i7-10510U has an advantage with its Hyperthreading.
| AMD Ryzen 5 4500U | Intel Core i7-10510U | |
|---|---|---|
| Cores / Threads | 6 / 6 | 4 / 8 |
| Base / Max frequency | 2.30 – 4.00 GHz | 1.80 – 4.90 GHz |
| Cache | 8 MB Cache | 8 MB Cache |
| TDP / up / down | 15W / 25W / 10W | 15W / 25W / 10W |
| Memory support | DDR4-3200MHz, LPDDR4-4266MHz | DDR4-2666MHz, LPDDR3-2133MHz |
| Integrated graphics | AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 (Ryzen 4000) | Intel UHD Graphics |
CPU Benchmark
In the first 3D rendering benchmark the Ryzen is 34% faster than the Intel and it also takes the win in our Photoshop rendering benchmark by being 12% faster.
Results are from the Cinebench 20 CPU test (the higher the score, the better)
Results are from our Photoshop benchmark test (the lower the score, the better)
GPU Benchmark
In the GPU department, we can see a huge difference between the two contestants. It won’t be an overstatement if we say that the RX Vega 6 inside of the Ryzen 5 is roughly two times better than its Intel counterpart.
Results are from the 3DMark: Time Spy (Graphics) benchmark (higher the score, the better)
Results are from the 3DMark: Fire Strike (Graphics) benchmark (higher the score, the better)
Results are from the 3DMark: Wild Life benchmark (higher the score, the better)
Results are from the Unigine Superposition benchmark (higher the score, the better)
Gaming capabilities
In terms of gaming, the Ryzen does not leave the Intel a chance. Both in Dota 2 and in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, the Ryzen does a substantially better job than its competitor.

| Intel UHD Graphics | 47 fps | 26 fps | – |
Conclusion
All in all, in this comparison we choose Ryzen as our clear winner. Not only does the processor perform better in our CPU benchmarks, but it shows more than a two times better performance when it comes to the integrated graphics. Overall, Ryzen is the clear winner in this comparison. Furthermore, the Ryzen 5 4500U is usually found on less expensive laptops than the Intel which also makes it more cost-effective.
