Core i7-11800H vs Ryzen 7 5700X specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5700X is faster than the Core i7-11800H. Despite this, the Core i7-11800H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5700X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11800H. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Core i7-11800H CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 7 5700X CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i7-11800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
