Intel® Core™ i5-12500HL

The Intel Core i5-12500HL is a embedded processor with a hybrid 12-core layout (4 performance cores + 8 efficiency cores) and 16 threads, built on the Alder Lake architecture (Intel 7 process). It launched in Jul 2022. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 4.5 GHz boost. A 18-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.3 MB per core). It addresses DDR5, DDR4 memory up to 64 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1700 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (20 lanes). Rated TDP is 45 W. Notable platform capabilities: Deep Learning Boost, AVX-VNNI, Extended Page Tables (EPT), AES-NI.

The Intel Core i5-12500HL scores 3,664 in single-core performance and 23,342 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 9,248 for overall performance, 20,302 for productivity performance, 19,433 for creator performance, 25,384 for engineering performance and 16,828 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,945 per core, 1,459 per thread and 519 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,379. Its performance index is 115, so its overall performance is 15% above 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 i5-12500HL scores 76,002 in integer math, 56,825 in floating-point math, 296,428 in compression, 17,048 in cryptography, 1,036 in physics simulation, 17,378 in vector SIMD, 60 in the prime sieve and 32,618 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 29% above in integer math, 24% above in floating-point math, 30% above in compression, 48% above in cryptography, 5% below in physics simulation, 12% above in vector SIMD, 10% below in the prime sieve and 44% above 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.
