Core i5-7500 vs Core i7-10875H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-10875H is faster than the Core i5-7500. Despite this, the Core i5-7500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-10875H has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i5-7500 has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7500. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-7500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-10875H. Despite this, the Core i7-10875H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-10875H outputs less heat than Core i5-7500 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core i7-10875H has more L2 cache than the Core i5-7500. The Core i7-10875H also has significantly more 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 i5-7500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
