Ryzen 9 6900HS vs Ryzen 7 6800U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 9 6900HS performs better than the Ryzen 7 6800U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 6800U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 6900HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 6800U. Also, the Ryzen 9 6900HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 6800U outputs less heat than Ryzen 9 6900HS thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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 and 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 6900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
