Intel Core i5-7400T vs Intel Core i7-5700HQ

Core i5-7400T vs Core i7-5700HQ comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-5700HQ beats the Core i5-7400T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7400T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-5700HQ has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-5700HQ has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-7400T. Also, the Core i7-5700HQ has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-7400T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-5700HQ CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and L3 cache.

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 i5-7400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
