Core i7-8750H vs Core i7-4800MQ benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-8750H is faster than the Core i7-4800MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4800MQ in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-8750H has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i7-4800MQ has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-4800MQ. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4800MQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8750H. Despite this, the Core i7-8750H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-8750H CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4800MQ CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core i7-8750H has more L2 cache than the Core i7-4800MQ. The Core i7-8750H also has significantly 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.
