Intel Pentium 4415Y vs Intel Core i5-12500H

Pentium 4415Y vs Core i5-12500H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-12500H is faster than the Pentium 4415Y. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium 4415Y in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-12500H has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Pentium 4415Y that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Pentium 4415Y. A Pentium 4415Y CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12500H CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Pentium 4415Y has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
