Intel Core Ultra 5 335 vs Intel Core Ultra 5 338H: Comparison
What is the difference between Core Ultra 5 335 and Core Ultra 5 338H?
On l3 cache the spread is 33%, Core Ultra 5 335 12 MB against Core Ultra 5 338H 18 MB, so Core Ultra 5 338H takes it. P-core base clock is not the same on both, 2.2 GHz on the Core Ultra 5 335 versus 1.9 GHz on the Core Ultra 5 338H. E-core base clock is not the same on both, 1.6 GHz on the Core Ultra 5 335 versus 1.5 GHz on the Core Ultra 5 338H. They differ on igpu too, Intel Arc on the Core Ultra 5 335 versus Intel Arc B370 on the Core Ultra 5 338H. There is a split on microarchitecture as well, Panther Lake, Intel Core Ultra Series 3, U-Series on the Core Ultra 5 335 versus Panther Lake, Intel Core Ultra Series 3 on the Core Ultra 5 338H.
Who each one is for
Take the Core Ultra 5 338H for thin laptops without a discrete GPU, using the 10 Xe3-core Arc B370 integrated graphics. The same goes for everyday and AI work with 12 cores and a 50 TOPS NPU. It is not the one for buyers needing 16 cores, since this chip has 12 cores and 12 threads.
Where the two are identical
Everything else lines up. Performance cores, tdp, integrated graphics, socket and product line read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 6 further specifications as well.
