Core i7-9700K vs Ryzen AI 5 340 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen AI 5 340 is faster than the Core i7-9700K. Despite this, the Core i7-9700K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-9700K has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340 that has 6 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen AI 5 340 has more threads than the Core i7-9700K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-9700K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340. Also, the Core i7-9700K has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen AI 5 340 outputs less heat than Core i7-9700K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen AI 5 340 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700K. The Ryzen AI 5 340 also has slightly more 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. For instance, the Core i7-9700K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
