Intel Core i7-8700T vs Intel Core i7-1165G7

Core i7-8700T vs Core i7-1165G7 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-8700T is faster than the Core i7-1165G7. Despite this, the Core i7-1165G7 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-8700T has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i7-1165G7 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-1165G7. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-1165G7 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8700T. Also, the Core i7-1165G7 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-1165G7 outputs less heat than Core i7-8700T 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 i7-8700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
