Ryzen 7 6800H vs Ryzen 5 6600H comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 6800H beats the Ryzen 5 6600H in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 6600H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 6800H has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 6600H that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 6600H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 6800H. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 6800H 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 info from our database shows that the Ryzen 7 6800H has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 6600H. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 6800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
