Ryzen 7 5700X vs Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5700X beats the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 5700X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 PRO 6950H outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 5700X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Ryzen 7 5700X also has significantly 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 5700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
