Intel Core i7-8700T vs Intel Core i7-8850H

Core i7-8700T vs Core i7-8850H benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-8700T performs better than the Core i7-8850H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8850H in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-8850H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8700T. Also, the Core i7-8850H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-8700T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-8850H CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and 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 i7-8700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
