Core i5-11260H vs Ryzen 7 6800HS specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-11260H performs better than the Ryzen 7 6800HS. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 6800HS in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 6800HS has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i5-11260H that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11260H. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 6800HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-11260H. Also, the Ryzen 7 6800HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 6800HS outputs less heat than Core i5-11260H thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i5-11260H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
