Ryzen 7 5800H vs Core i9-12900H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-12900H 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.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i9-12900H has significantly more cores with 14 cores whereas the Ryzen 7 5800H has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 5800H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-12900H. Despite this, the Core i9-12900H 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.

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 5800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
