Intel® Core™ i7-12650HX

The Intel Core i7-12650HX is a laptop processor with a hybrid 14-core layout (6 performance cores + 8 efficiency cores) and 20 threads, built on the Alder Lake architecture (Intel 7 process). It launched in Apr 2022. Clocks run from 2.0 GHz base to 4.7 GHz boost. A 24-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.9 MB per core). It addresses DDR5, DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1964 socket and exposes PCIe 5.0 (20 lanes). Rated TDP is 55 W. Notable platform capabilities: Deep Learning Boost, AVX-VNNI, Extended Page Tables (EPT), AES-NI.

The Intel Core i7-12650HX scores 3,534 in single-core performance and 22,319 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 8,881 for overall performance, 19,455 for productivity performance, 18,637 for creator performance, 24,969 for engineering performance and 16,182 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,594 per core, 1,116 per thread and 406 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 1,198. Its performance index is 110, so its overall performance is 10% 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 i7-12650HX scores 79,043 in integer math, 56,670 in floating-point math, 265,788 in compression, 15,610 in cryptography, 1,127 in physics simulation, 15,896 in vector SIMD, 73 in the prime sieve and 29,416 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 34% above in integer math, 23% above in floating-point math, 17% above in compression, 36% above in cryptography, 3% above in physics simulation, 2% above in vector SIMD, 9% above in the prime sieve and 30% 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.

The Intel Core i7-12650HX has 14 physical cores and runs 20 logical threads. It uses a hybrid layout of 6 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores. It runs at a base clock of 2.00 GHz and boosts up to 4.70 GHz.
