Core i7-1260U vs Core 7 150U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core 7 150U performs better than the Core i7-1260U. Despite this, the Core i7-1260U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core 7 150U has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-1260U. Also, the Core 7 150U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and 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 i7-1260U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
