Core i7-8750H vs Core i5-10300H specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-8750H is faster than the Core i5-10300H. Despite this, the Core i5-10300H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-8750H has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i5-10300H has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10300H. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-8750H. Also, the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i7-8750H has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-10300H. The Core i7-8750H also has slightly more 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 i7-8750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
