Ryzen 9 4900HS vs Core i5-11400F comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 9 4900HS performs better than the Core i5-11400F. Despite this, the Core i5-11400F has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 9 4900HS has slightly more cores than the Core i5-11400F. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 4900HS has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-11400F. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11400F. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 9 4900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-11400F. Despite this, the Core i5-11400F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-11400F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 9 4900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
