Intel 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 vs Intel 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H: Comparison

10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 vs 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H: the l3 cache difference

The gap that matters here is l3 cache: 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 6 MB against 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H 8 MB, which puts 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H 25% ahead. Add l2 cache to that, 2 MB on the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 versus 5 MB on the 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H, and the pattern holds. There is a split on microarchitecture as well, Ice Lake, 10th Gen Intel Core on the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 versus Tiger Lake, 11th Gen Intel Core on the 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H.

Which should you buy, 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 or 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H?

Take the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 for mid-range laptops wanting a balance of CPU multi-threading and stronger integrated graphics than entry-level Ice Lake chips. It is not the one for buyers wanting the absolute strongest integrated graphics of the Ice Lake generation, dedicated Iris Plus configurations on select SKUs pushed further. Take the 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H for mid-range gaming laptops wanting genuinely strong integrated graphics alongside solid 4-core CPU performance. It is the wrong buy for buyers needing more than 4 cores for sustained multi-threaded work, H-series chips with more cores handle that better.

Where the two are identical

The common ground is wider than the gap: total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, total threads and integrated graphics are identical here. They match on 4 further specifications as well.

Frequently asked questions

Do the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 and 11th Gen Intel Core i5 11300H differ on p-core boost clock?
