Intel Core i9-9900KF vs Intel Core i7-11850H

Core i9-9900KF vs Core i7-11850H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-9900KF is faster than the Core i7-11850H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-11850H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i9-9900KF has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11850H. Also, the Core i9-9900KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-11850H outputs less heat than Core i9-9900KF 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 i9-9900KF has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
