Core i7-9750H vs Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9750H performs better than the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i7-9750H has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9750H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-9750H. Despite this, the Core i7-9750H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-9750H CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X 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 Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X has more L2 cache than the Core i7-9750H. The Ryzen 7 PRO 1700X also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 i7-9750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
