Core i9-10980HK vs EPYC 74F3 comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the EPYC 74F3 performs better than the Core i9-10980HK. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i9-10980HK in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the EPYC 74F3 has slightly more cores with 9 cores compared to the Core i9-10980HK that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i9-10980HK. Our comparison shows that the EPYC 74F3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-10980HK. A Core i9-10980HK CPU outputs less heat than a EPYC 74F3 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 EPYC 74F3 has more L2 cache than the Core i9-10980HK. The EPYC 74F3 also has significantly 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 i9-10980HK has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
