Ryzen 7 7700 vs Ryzen 9 8945HS comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 7700 is faster than the Ryzen 9 8945HS. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 9 8945HS in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 9 8945HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 7700. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 7700 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 8945HS outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 7700 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 7700 also has significantly 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 7700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
