Intel Core i3-8300 vs Intel Core i5-10200H

Core i3-8300 vs Core i5-10200H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-10200H is faster than the Core i3-8300. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8300 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-10200H has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-8300 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-10200H. The Core i5-10200H outputs less heat than Core i3-8300 thanks to a slightly 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. The Core i3-8300 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. For instance, the Core i3-8300 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
