Ryzen 9 4900H vs Ryzen 9 6900HX benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 6900HX is faster than the Ryzen 9 4900H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 9 4900H 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 6900HX has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 9 4900H. Also, the Ryzen 9 6900HX 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 data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Ryzen 9 6900HX also has significantly 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 9 4900H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
