Ryzen 7 1700 vs Ryzen 9 5900HS specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 5900HS is faster than the Ryzen 7 1700. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 1700 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. According to our data, the Ryzen 7 1700 and Ryzen 9 5900HS have the same clock speed. The Ryzen 9 5900HS outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 1700 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and 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 Ryzen 7 1700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
