Core i7-6700K vs Core i7-11370H benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11370H beats the Core i7-6700K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6700K in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. The Core i7-11370H outputs less heat than Core i7-6700K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i7-6700K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
