About PassMark

PassMark CPU Mark evaluates processor speed through complex mathematical computations. It provides a reliable metric to compare multi-core performance, where higher scores indicate faster processing for multitasking, gaming, and heavy workloads.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, productivity performance, platform differences, power efficiency, pricing context, and upgrade path so you can see which CPU actually makes more sense.

Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS

2023

Why buy it

  • Better for gaming: +12.6% higher average FPS across 50 shared CPU benchmark tests.
  • Draws 6W instead of 140W, a 134W reduction.
  • Newer platform on FP7/FP8 with DDR5 support instead of SP3r2 and DDR4.

Trade-offs

  • Smaller total L3 cache (16 MB vs 32 MB).
  • Less compelling for workstation-style loads than Ryzen Threadripper 1920, which brings 12 cores / 24 threads.

Ryzen Threadripper 1920

2017

Why buy it

Quick Answers

So, is Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS better than Ryzen Threadripper 1920?
Not in a simple one-size-fits-all way. Ryzen Threadripper 1920 makes more sense for workstation-style multi-core throughput, while Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is the better mainstream desktop choice for gaming, platform cost, and day-to-day practicality.
Which one is better for gaming?
If gaming is the priority, Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is the better pick here. According to our tests, it delivers 12.6% more average FPS across 50 shared CPU game tests.
Which one is better for streaming, content creation, and heavy multitasking?
For streaming, content creation, and heavier multitasking, Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is the better fit. You are getting 0.3% better PassMark, backed by 6 cores and 12 threads.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper CPU?
Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is still the faster CPU overall, but Ryzen Threadripper 1920 makes more sense if price matters more than absolute performance. Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is at an unclear MSRP at unclear MSRP versus $799 MSRP, and it gives you a 12.6% average FPS lead across 50 shared CPU game tests in our data. Ryzen Threadripper 1920 is also 100.0% better value on MSRP (27.6 vs 0.0 PassMark/$), which is why it is easier to justify for price-conscious builds on paper.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
Ryzen 5 PRO 7640HS is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer CPU generation (2023 vs 2017), a healthier platform with FP7/FP8 and DDR5 instead of SP3r2, and more multi-core headroom with 6 cores / 12 threads instead of 12/24. That should give you a better long-term upgrade path for motherboard, RAM, and future CPU swaps.

Games Benchmarks

Paired with RTX 4090

To accurately isolate CPU performance, all benchmarks below use an NVIDIA RTX 4090 as the reference GPU. This eliminates GPU-side bottlenecks and highlights pure processing throughput differences between the CPUs.

Note: Real-world results may vary based on your actual GPU. CPU performance impact is more visible in processing-intensive titles and high-refresh-rate gaming scenarios.
