Intel Core i5-11300H vs Intel Core i7-3930K

Core i5-11300H vs Core i7-3930K specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-3930K is faster than the Core i5-11300H. Despite this, the Core i5-11300H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-3930K has significantly more cores with 6 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 i7-3930K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i5-11300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
