AMD Ryzen 7 4800U vs Intel Core i7-1255U

Ryzen 7 4800U vs Core i7-1255U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 4800U is faster than the Core i7-1255U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-1255U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-1255U has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 7 4800U. Indeed, the Core i7-1255U has 10 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Ryzen 7 4800U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4800U has more threads than the Core i7-1255U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4800U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1255U. Despite this, the Core i7-1255U has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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. The Core i7-1255U also has significantly more L3 cache.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4800U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
