Core i5-10505 vs Core i5-11400 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-11400 beats the Core i5-10505 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10505 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-11400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-10505. Despite this, the Core i5-10505 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.

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 i5-10505 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
