Ryzen 7 4800H vs Core i7-9800X comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-9800X is faster than the Ryzen 7 4800H. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4800H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-9800X has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4800H. Also, the Core i7-9800X has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4800H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-9800X CPU because of its 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 Ryzen 7 4800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
