Intel Core i7-9700KF vs Intel CoreT i5-13500H

Core i7-9700KF vs CoreT i5-13500H benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-9700KF beats the CoreT i5-13500H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the CoreT i5-13500H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the CoreT i5-13500H has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Core i7-9700KF that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9700KF. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-9700KF has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the CoreT i5-13500H. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the CoreT i5-13500H has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-9700KF. The CoreT i5-13500H also has significantly more 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 i7-9700KF has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
