Core i5-5200U vs Core i5-12400F specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-12400F performs better than the Core i5-5200U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-5200U in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-12400F has significantly more cores than the Core i5-5200U. Indeed, the Core i5-12400F has 6 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-5200U. It also has more threads than the Core i5-5200U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-12400F has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5200U. Also, the Core i5-12400F has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-5200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12400F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 i5-5200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
