Core i7-8750H vs Core 2 Duo E8500 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Core i7-8750H beats the Core 2 Duo E8500 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Duo E8500 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-8750H has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core 2 Duo E8500 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core 2 Duo E8500. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8500 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8750H. A Core i7-8750H CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8500 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core 2 Duo E8500 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-8750H
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 i7-8750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
