Intel Core Ultra 7 255H vs Intel Core Ultra 5 235

Core Ultra 7 255H vs Core Ultra 5 235 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core Ultra 5 235 beats the Core Ultra 7 255H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core Ultra 7 255H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core Ultra 7 255H has slightly more cores with 16 cores compared to the Core Ultra 5 235 that has 14 cores. It also has more threads than the Core Ultra 5 235. With our hardware info, we find that the Core Ultra 5 235 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core Ultra 7 255H. In terms of cache, the Core Ultra 7 255H has slightly more L2 cache when compared to the Core Ultra 5 235. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 Ultra 7 255H has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
