Ryzen 7 5800U vs Core i7-9700F comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5800U beats the Core i7-9700F in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-9700F has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 7 5800U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-9700F has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800U. Also, the Core i7-9700F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-9700F 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 5800U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-9700F. The Ryzen 7 5800U also has slightly 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 5800U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
