Ryzen 7 2700 vs Core i7-8700T benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 2700 performs better than the Core i7-8700T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8700T in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 2700 has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i7-8700T that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-8700T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8700T. Also, the Ryzen 7 2700 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-8700T outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 2700 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-8700T. The Ryzen 7 2700 also has slightly more 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 2700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
