Core i7-7700HQ vs Core i7-1185G7 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-1185G7 performs better than the Core i7-7700HQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-7700HQ 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 i7-1185G7 outputs less heat than Core i7-7700HQ thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i7-7700HQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
