Core i5-760 vs Core i5-5257U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-760 is faster than the Core i5-5257U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-5257U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-760 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-5257U. Indeed, the Core i5-760 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-5257U. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-760 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5257U. Also, the Core i5-760 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-5257U outputs less heat than Core i5-760 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 i5-760 has more L2 cache than the Core i5-5257U. The Core i5-760 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Core i5-760 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
