Core i3-8300 vs Core i7-1065G7 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1065G7 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.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-1065G7 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-8300 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1065G7. The Core i7-1065G7 outputs less heat than Core i3-8300 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.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i3-8300 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
