Core i5-10500 vs Core i5-13420H specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-13420H performs better than the Core i5-10500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10500 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-13420H has slightly more cores than the Core i5-10500. Indeed, the Core i5-13420H has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-10500. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-10500 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-13420H. Despite this, the Core i5-13420H has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core i5-13420H has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-10500. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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. Indeed, the Core i5-10500 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
