Intel Core i5-6440HQ vs Intel Core i7-10750H

Core i5-6440HQ vs Core i7-10750H benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-10750H performs better than the Core i5-6440HQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-6440HQ in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-10750H has significantly more cores than the Core i5-6440HQ. Indeed, the Core i7-10750H has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-6440HQ. It also has more threads than the Core i5-6440HQ. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-6440HQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10750H. Despite this, the Core i7-10750H has a much higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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. For instance, the Core i5-6440HQ has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
