Core i5-7200U vs Core i5-8259U specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-8259U performs better than the Core i5-7200U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7200U in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-8259U has significantly more cores than the Core i5-7200U. Indeed, the Core i5-8259U has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-7200U. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7200U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-7200U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8259U. Despite this, the Core i5-8259U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-7200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-8259U 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 i5-7200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
