Core i5-13500H vs Core i7-1270P comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1270P is faster than the Core i5-13500H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-13500H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-13500H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1270P. Despite this, the Core i7-1270P has a slightly higher turbo speed. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and L3 cache.

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 i5-13500H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
