Core i7-13700H vs Core i5-13500HX benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-13500HX is faster than the Core i7-13700H. Despite this, the Core i7-13700H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-13500HX has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-13700H. Despite this, the Core i7-13700H 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 i7-13700H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
