Core i7-10870H vs Ryzen 7 6800H specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 6800H beats the Core i7-10870H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-10870H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 6800H has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-10870H. Despite this, the Core i7-10870H has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 6800H has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-10870H. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i7-10870H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
