Ryzen 9 5900HS vs Core i7-1270P benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 5900HS is faster than the Core i7-1270P. Despite this, the Core i7-1270P has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-1270P has significantly more cores with 12 cores whereas the Ryzen 9 5900HS has 8 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 9 5900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1270P. The Core i7-1270P outputs less heat than Ryzen 9 5900HS thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i7-1270P has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 9 5900HS. The Core i7-1270P also has slightly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 5900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
