Intel Core i7-10710U vs Intel Core i3-10105F

Core i7-10710U vs Core i3-10105F specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-10710U beats the Core i3-10105F in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-10105F in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-10710U has significantly more cores than the Core i3-10105F. Indeed, the Core i7-10710U has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i3-10105F. It also has more threads than the Core i3-10105F. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-10105F has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-10710U. Despite this, the Core i7-10710U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-10710U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-10105F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. 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. Indeed, the Core i7-10710U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
