Intel Core i7-9700F vs Intel Core Ultra 7 256V

Core i7-9700F vs Core Ultra 7 256V comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core Ultra 7 256V is faster than the Core i7-9700F. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-9700F in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-9700F has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core Ultra 7 256V. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 256V has a slightly higher turbo speed. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core Ultra 7 256V has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700F. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i7-9700F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
