Intel Core i9-8950HK vs Intel Core i7-10750H

Core i9-8950HK vs Core i7-10750H specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i9-8950HK beats the Core i7-10750H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-10750H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i9-8950HK has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10750H. Despite this, the Core i7-10750H has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and 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. Indeed, the Core i9-8950HK has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
