AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1900X vs Intel Core i7-11700

Ryzen Threadripper 1900X vs Core i7-11700 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11700 beats the Ryzen Threadripper 1900X in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen Threadripper 1900X in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen Threadripper 1900X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11700. The Core i7-11700 outputs less heat than Ryzen Threadripper 1900X 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.

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 Threadripper 1900X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
