Ryzen 9 5900HS vs Core i7-10700 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 9 5900HS beats the Core i7-10700 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-10700 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 5900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10700. A Ryzen 9 5900HS CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-10700 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. 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 9 5900HS has more L2 cache than the Core i7-10700. 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 9 5900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
