Core i9-9900 vs Ryzen AI 5 340 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-9900 is faster than the Ryzen AI 5 340. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen AI 5 340 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i9-9900 has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen AI 5 340. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i9-9900 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340. Also, the Core i9-9900 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen AI 5 340 outputs less heat than Core i9-9900 thanks to a 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 Ryzen AI 5 340 has more L2 cache than the Core i9-9900. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 i9-9900 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
