Core i7-9800X vs Ryzen 7 6800H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-9800X is faster than the Ryzen 7 6800H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 6800H in all gaming tests too.

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 i7-9800X has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 6800H. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 6800H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 6800H outputs less heat than Core i7-9800X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i7-9800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
