Core i7-9700KF vs Core 5 210H specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700KF performs better than the Core 5 210H. Despite this, the Core 5 210H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core 5 210H has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-9700KF has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core 5 210H. Also, the Core i7-9700KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. In terms of cache, the Core 5 210H has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-9700KF. 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 i7-9700KF has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
