Intel Core i7-9700F vs Intel Core Ultra 7 155U

Core i7-9700F vs Core Ultra 7 155U comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700F performs better than the Core Ultra 7 155U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core Ultra 7 155U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core Ultra 7 155U has significantly more cores than the Core i7-9700F. Indeed, the Core Ultra 7 155U has 12 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Core i7-9700F. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9700F. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-9700F has a much higher clock speed than the Core Ultra 7 155U. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 155U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core Ultra 7 155U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700F. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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