Core i5-9400F vs Core Ultra 7 258V specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core Ultra 7 258V is faster than the Core i5-9400F. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-9400F in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core Ultra 7 258V has slightly more cores than the Core i5-9400F. Indeed, the Core Ultra 7 258V has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-9400F. It also has more threads than the Core i5-9400F. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-9400F has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core Ultra 7 258V. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 258V has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core Ultra 7 258V has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-9400F. The Core Ultra 7 258V also has slightly 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 i5-9400F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
