Intel Core i5-7600K vs Intel Core 7 150U

Core i5-7600K vs Core 7 150U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-7600K is faster than the Core 7 150U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 7 150U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core 7 150U has significantly more cores with 10 cores whereas the Core i5-7600K has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7600K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-7600K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core 7 150U. Despite this, the Core 7 150U has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core 7 150U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7600K. The Core 7 150U also has significantly more L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Core i5-7600K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
