Intel Core i7-8750H vs Intel Core i5-12400

Core i7-8750H vs Core i5-12400 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-12400 beats the Core i7-8750H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8750H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-12400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8750H. Also, the Core i5-12400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-8750H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i7-8750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
