Core i9-10885H vs Ryzen 5 7520U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-10885H is faster than the Ryzen 5 7520U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 7520U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i9-10885H has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 7520U that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 7520U. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 7520U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i9-10885H. Despite this, the Core i9-10885H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 7520U outputs less heat than Core i9-10885H thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i9-10885H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
