Ryzen 7 4800U vs Core i7-7800X comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 4800U performs better than the Core i7-7800X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-7800X in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 4800U has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i7-7800X has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-7800X. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-7800X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 4800U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4800U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4800U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-7800X CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
