Core i5-10310U vs Core i5-7400 specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Core i5-7400 beats the Core i5-10310U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10310U in all gaming tests too.
Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-10310U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-7400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-10310U. Despite this, the Core i5-10310U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-10310U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-7400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 i5-10310U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
