Core i7-9700T vs Core i5-11400F comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-11400F is faster than the Core i7-9700T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-9700T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-9700T has slightly more cores than the Core i5-11400F. Indeed, the Core i7-9700T has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-11400F. Despite this, the Core i5-11400F has more threads than the Core i7-9700T. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-11400F has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-9700T. Also, the Core i5-11400F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-9700T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-11400F CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i7-9700T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
