Ryzen 7 4700U vs Core i7-1260P comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1260P is faster than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-1260P has significantly more cores with 12 cores whereas the Ryzen 7 4700U has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-1260P has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U. Also, the Core i7-1260P has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-1260P CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Core i7-1260P 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 Ryzen 7 4700U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
