Ryzen AI 9 365 vs Core i9-12950HX specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-12950HX is faster than the Ryzen AI 9 365. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen AI 9 365 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i9-12950HX has significantly more cores with 16 cores compared to the Ryzen AI 9 365 that has 10 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen AI 9 365. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i9-12950HX has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen AI 9 365. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Ryzen AI 9 365 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i9-12950HX CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core i9-12950HX has slightly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen AI 9 365. The Core i9-12950HX also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 AI 9 365 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
