Intel 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y vs Intel 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7: Comparison

What is the difference between 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y and 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7?

L3 cache is where these two genuinely part company, 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y 4 MB against 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7 8 MB, a 50% lead for 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7. L2 cache runs the same way, 0.5 MB on the 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y versus 2 MB on the 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7, another win for 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7. They differ on product line too, Core i5 on the 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y versus Core i7 on the 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7. Release year is not the same on both, 2018 on the 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y versus 2019 on the 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7.

8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y vs 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7: which one fits your build

Take the 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y for the thinnest fanless laptop and 2-in-1 designs prioritizing silent operation and battery life. It is not the one for any performance-focused computing, the 5W power budget is a genuine ceiling on sustained throughput. Take the 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7 for upper mid-range and premium thin-and-light laptops wanting the strongest available Ice Lake integrated graphics alongside solid CPU performance. Avoid it for buyers specifically needing more than 4 cores for sustained multi-threaded work, H-series chips of the same generation handle that better.

What 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8200Y and 10th Gen Intel Core i7-1065G7 have in common

Everything else lines up. Efficiency cores, p-core boost clock, p-core base clock, integrated graphics and form factor read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 2 further specifications as well.
