Core i5-11300H vs Core i7-11800H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-11800H is faster than the Core i5-11300H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-11300H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-11800H has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i5-11300H that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11300H. A Core i5-11300H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-11800H CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. 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 i5-11300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
