Ryzen 7 5800H vs Core i7-9700K comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-9700K is faster than the Ryzen 7 5800H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5800H in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 7 5800H has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-9700K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800H. Also, the Core i7-9700K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-9700K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 7 5800H has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-9700K. The Ryzen 7 5800H also has slightly 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 5800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
