Is AMD Ryzen 9 Better Than Intel Core i9?

When you compare a 24-core Intel Core i9 against a 12 or 16-core AMD Ryzen 9, it wouldn't be wrong to assume that Intel has AMD beat. After all, surely more cores = better performance? However, while Intel's latest offerings do indeed boast more cores, it's not as cut and dry as this - let us explain.

With 12th-Gen Intel Core, Intel transitioned to a hybrid CPU architecture, with a mix of little Efficient-cores (designed to handle background processes) and big Performance-cores (the main cores of an Intel processor). An Intel Core i9 14900K, for example, has a total of 24 cores. Look close as its specs, however, and you'll see only 8 of these cores are P-cores. E-cores can be used to accelerate performance in certain tasks, but it's the P-cores which do most of the work - especially in games.

AMD processors, on the other hand, are built of only big, high-performance cores, giving a 12 or 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 excellent performance in heavily multi-threaded workloads. And while these Intel Core i9 processors can go toe-to-toe with AMD Ryzen 9 processors, as shown in benchmarks, this is more often than not as the expense of considerably higher power consumption and, in turn, heat generation.

As a top-of-the-line processor, an AMD Ryzen 9 will get toasty under load, too - make sure to pick up a beefy aftermarket cooling solution. But considering the performance on offer, it's surprisingly efficient.

Why Should I Buy an AMD Ryzen 9 Processor?

If you're looking to buy a top-shelf processor like an AMD Ryzen 9, then it's highly likely that you're also looking to buy, or already own, an ultra-high-end graphics card. And if this is the case, you'll for sure want one of these AMD Ryzen processors to help minimise 'bottlenecking'. This is when a component's performance is held back by a weaker component somewhere in your system.

In low to mid-range systems, the GPU is usually the bottleneck. As in, the GPU utilisation maxes out before the CPU's. But with how ridiculously fast today's graphics cards have gotten, like the almighty NVIDIA RTX 4090, the reverse is true for high-end systems. Even at 4K with all the bells and whistles enables, many games will still be CPU-limited on an RTX 4090. You need a processor like the AMD Ryzen 9 to get the most out of this tier of graphics card, otherwise you'd just be leaving performance on the table.

That being said, few game engines are architected to take advantage of more than 8 cores, as this is how many cores are in the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. So, for those who simply want the fastest gaming CPU, you'd do just as well with an AMD Ryzen 7 X3D processor (3D V-Cache is a big deal for gaming).

If, however, you're building the ultimate do-it-all computer for gaming, in addition to live-streaming, video editing, and more, an AMD Ryzen 9 will be your best choice. With an AMD Ryzen 9, you get a big increase in core count over an 8-core AMD Ryzen 7, bordering on workstation-levels of cores, without having to buy into an expensive, professional platform like Threadripper.
