Intel 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 vs Intel 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H: Comparison
10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 vs 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H l3 cache compared
On l3 cache the spread is 50%, 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 6 MB against 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H 12 MB, so 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H takes it. L2 cache runs the same way, 2 MB on the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 versus 7.5 MB on the 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H, another win for 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H. Tdp is not the same on both, 15 W on the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 versus 45 W on the 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H. Socket is not the same on both, FCBGA1526 on the 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 versus FCBGA1787 on the 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H.
Which should you buy, 10th Gen Intel Core i5-1035G7 or 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500H?
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 i5-11500H for mainstream gaming laptops wanting the higher-clocked end of Intel's Tiger Lake H 6-core tier. It is the wrong buy for buyers needing more than 6 cores for sustained multi-threaded work, the 8-core i7/i9 H-series chips offer more.
Where the two are identical
Everything else lines up. Efficiency cores, integrated graphics, socket status, product line and form factor read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 3 further specifications as well.
