Core i7-9700KF vs Ryzen 7 5825U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-9700KF is faster than the Ryzen 7 5825U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5825U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 7 5825U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-9700KF has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 5825U. Also, the Core i7-9700KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5825U outputs less heat than Core i7-9700KF 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 7 5825U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700KF. The Ryzen 7 5825U 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 i7-9700KF has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
