Core i5-1240P vs Core i5-13420H benchmarks
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-13420H is faster than the Core i5-1240P. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-1240P in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-1240P has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Core i5-13420H that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-13420H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-13420H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-1240P. Also, the Core i5-13420H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i5-13420H has slightly more L2 cache than the Core i5-1240P. 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 i5-1240P has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
