Core i5-10300H vs Core i5-12450H specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-12450H performs better than the Core i5-10300H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10300H in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-12450H has significantly more cores than the Core i5-10300H. Indeed, the Core i5-12450H has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-10300H. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10300H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-12450H. Also, the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i5-12450H has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-10300H. The Core i5-12450H also has significantly 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. Indeed, the Core i5-10300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
