Ryzen 7 5800X3D vs Ryzen 9 6900HS specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D performs better than the Ryzen 9 6900HS. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 9 6900HS in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 9 6900HS. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 6900HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 6900HS outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 5800X3D thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D also has significantly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
