Intel® Core™ i5-10500T

The Intel Core i5-10500T is a desktop processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Comet Lake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Apr 2020. Clocks run from 2.3 GHz base to 3.8 GHz boost. A 12-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.3 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1200 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 35 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT), Control-flow Enforcement (CET).

The Intel Core i5-10500T scores 2,284 in single-core performance and 10,236 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 4,835 for overall performance, 9,851 for productivity performance, 9,741 for creator performance, 10,172 for engineering performance and 9,411 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,706 per core, 853 per thread and 293 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 817. Its performance index is 60, so its overall performance is 40% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core i5-10500T scores 36,255 in integer math, 22,801 in floating-point math, 159,529 in compression, 3,460 in cryptography, 561 in physics simulation, 10,131 in vector SIMD, 27 in the prime sieve and 20,285 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 38% below in integer math, 50% below in floating-point math, 30% below in compression, 70% below in cryptography, 49% below in physics simulation, 35% below in vector SIMD, 60% below in the prime sieve and 10% below in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core i5-10500T has 6 physical cores and runs 12 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.30 GHz and boosts up to 3.80 GHz.
