Intel Core i5-10500T vs Intel Core i5-1345U

Core i5-10500T vs Core i5-1345U specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-1345U beats the Core i5-10500T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10500T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-1345U has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Core i5-10500T that has 6 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-10500T has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1345U. Despite this, the Core i5-1345U has a slightly higher turbo speed.

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 i5-10500T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
