Intel Core i5-10600K vs Intel Core i5-1340P

Core i5-10600K vs Core i5-1340P specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-1340P is faster than the Core i5-10600K. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10600K in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-1340P has significantly more cores than the Core i5-10600K. Indeed, the Core i5-1340P has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-10600K. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10600K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-10600K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-1340P. Also, the Core i5-10600K has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core i5-1340P has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-10600K. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 i5-10600K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
