Intel Core i7-8086K vs Intel Core i5-1350P

Core i7-8086K vs Core i5-1350P comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-1350P beats the Core i7-8086K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8086K in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-1350P has significantly more cores than the Core i7-8086K. Indeed, the Core i5-1350P has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i7-8086K. It also has more threads than the Core i7-8086K. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-8086K has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1350P. Also, the Core i7-8086K has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core i5-1350P has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-8086K. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 i7-8086K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
