Core i5-11260H vs Core i5-1245U benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the Core i5-11260H beats the Core i5-1245U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-1245U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-1245U has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Core i5-11260H that has 6 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-11260H has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-1245U.
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 i5-11260H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
