Core i9-11900H vs EPYC 74F3 comparison

In our benchmarks, the EPYC 74F3 beats the Core i9-11900H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i9-11900H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the EPYC 74F3 has slightly more cores than the Core i9-11900H. Indeed, the EPYC 74F3 has 9 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Core i9-11900H. It also has more threads than the Core i9-11900H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the EPYC 74F3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-11900H. A Core i9-11900H 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.

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 i9-11900H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
