Intel Core i7-9700F vs Intel Core i5-11300H

Core i7-9700F vs Core i5-11300H comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700F performs better than the Core i5-11300H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-11300H in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-9700F has significantly more cores than the Core i5-11300H. Indeed, the Core i7-9700F has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-11300H. But they both have the same number of threads. The Core i5-11300H outputs less heat than Core i7-9700F thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Core i7-9700F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
