Core i7-12650H vs EPYC 74F3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-12650H is faster than the EPYC 74F3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the EPYC 74F3 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-12650H has slightly more cores with 10 cores whereas the EPYC 74F3 has 9 cores. Despite this, the EPYC 74F3 has more threads than the Core i7-12650H. With our hardware info, we find that the EPYC 74F3 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-12650H. A Core i7-12650H CPU outputs less heat than a EPYC 74F3 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the EPYC 74F3 has more L2 cache than the Core i7-12650H. The EPYC 74F3 also has slightly more 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 i7-12650H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
