Ryzen 9 4900HS vs Core i7-11800H specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11800H beats the Ryzen 9 4900HS in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 9 4900HS 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 4900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11800H. Despite this, the Core i7-11800H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-11800H CPU because of its slightly 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.
