Core i7-1065G7 vs Core i5-6500TE benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1065G7 is faster than the Core i5-6500TE. Despite this, the Core i5-6500TE has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-1065G7 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-6500TE has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1065G7. Despite this, the Core i7-1065G7 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-1065G7 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-6500TE CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Core i7-1065G7 also has slightly 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. Indeed, the Core i7-1065G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
