Intel Core i5-10500H

The Intel Core i5-10500H is a 6-core (12-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The i5-10500H is compatible with FCBGA1440 motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel UHD Graphics for 10th Gen Intel Processors integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Core i5-10500H has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 384 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 12 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i5-10500H features 6 total cores which can process 12 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2500.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 4500.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Core i5-10500H includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel UHD Graphics for 10th Gen Intel Processors. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The Core i5-10500H has the 188th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 33.25% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
