Core i7-11700F vs Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H is faster than the Core i7-11700F. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-11700F in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-11700F. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H outputs less heat than Core i7-11700F thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and 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 i7-11700F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
