Intel Core i5-9500T vs Intel Core i5-11320H

Core i5-9500T vs Core i5-11320H benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-11320H beats the Core i5-9500T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-9500T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-9500T has significantly more cores than the Core i5-11320H. Indeed, the Core i5-9500T has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-11320H. Despite this, the Core i5-11320H has more threads than the Core i5-9500T. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-9500T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
