Core i7-11800H vs Ryzen Z1 Extreme specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen Z1 Extreme performs better than the Core i7-11800H. Despite this, the Core i7-11800H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen Z1 Extreme has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11800H.

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 i7-11800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
