Core i9-11950H vs Ryzen 9 6900HS comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-11950H is faster than the Ryzen 9 6900HS. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 9 6900HS in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 6900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-11950H. Despite this, the Core i9-11950H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 6900HS outputs less heat than Core i9-11950H thanks to a slightly 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 i9-11950H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
