Core i7-2670QM vs Pentium Silver N5030 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-2670QM is faster than the Pentium Silver N5030. Despite this, the Pentium Silver N5030 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-2670QM has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-2670QM has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium Silver N5030. The Pentium Silver N5030 outputs less heat than Core i7-2670QM thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i7-2670QM has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
