Conclusion

To conclude the results from above, the Ryzen 9 had a better performance in our 3D Rendering tests, scoring 15% higher. Where the Core i9 was better, however, was in our Photoshop test, where it was faster by nearly 0.7 seconds. The results were overall really close and this shows that the Ryzen 9, while not being able to beat the Core i9 completely, still shows areas where it is better. The Core i9’s performance is a testament to its power even though it uses last year’s technology. We are also eager to see if the Zen 3 architecture will help AMD to beat Intel in the laptop gaming market as well.
