Ryzen 7 2700X vs Ryzen Threadripper 1900X comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 2700X beats the Ryzen Threadripper 1900X in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen Threadripper 1900X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 Ryzen Threadripper 1900X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 2700X. A Ryzen 7 2700X CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen Threadripper 1900X CPU because of its 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.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
