Core i7-6920HQ vs Core i5-10200H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-10200H is faster than the Core i7-6920HQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6920HQ in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-6920HQ has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-10200H. Despite this, the Core i5-10200H has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i7-6920HQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
