Core i7-8850H vs Core i7-9750HF comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-9750HF beats the Core i7-8850H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-8850H 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-8850H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-9750HF. Despite this, the Core i7-9750HF 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 data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and L3 cache.

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 i7-8850H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
