Hey there! If you find this content to be helpful please consider subbing to channel it helps me grow and provide bread on the table. Thank you for your viewership :)
Very well explained! Love the video 👍
Thanks so much!
I am looking to purchase a new computer shortly. Currently running a ten year old HP AIO with a CORE i3. Your videos on Intel CPUs are very helpful. Considering a Tiny Desktop, Lenovo or HP. Looking for a durable configuration with potentially a long lifespan. Maybe a video on these small desktops would be of interest to some?
Go with the Lenovo or an Asus or Acer, I would advise to steer clear of HP
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
This gold. Been looking for this
Great video , it helped a lot
Thank you❤
Glad it helped!
amazing videos man 👍
subbed
Thanks! Glad I could help :)
Great video!.... Can you also explain the model numbers of Ryzen processors? Like the meaning of the numbers AMD Ryzen 7-7730U..... Thanks.
Great explanation.. Thank you...
You are welcome! Glad I was of help :)
Amazing job man thank you❤
Glad you found it to be helpful!
Another great video from you, many thanks for the insight...GBU..
Glad you enjoyed it
Very very helpful watching from Africa Zambia ❤
Glad it helped!
Really helpful👍
Glad to hear that
Thank you very much, that's a great explanation it was exactly what i was looking for., and the 3% info, gonna make me think twice before buying 14 unles it's a difference of 3 to 5% in price too maybe a little bit more but no more than 10%.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Can you explain the letter at the end of the processor. For instance, what’s the difference between an i9 13900h and an i9 13900hx. What’s the h and hx please?
For sure I can!
In the mean time to answer your question.
While both H and HX series are part of intel's high performance line up, HX chips run at even higher wattage (comparable to desktop class CPU's), this gives them an edge in overall performance however also makes them much hotter than H series chips meaning you will often find them in bulkier laptops.
U Series = Low Performance, High Efficiency
P Series = Balanced
H Series = High Performance, Lower Efficiency
HX Series = Maximum Performance, Low Efficiency
Dang I love the site you used. I have a super old pc that isn't much of a gaming pc, and I checked my graphics card against the current top place (Nvidia RTX 4090 VS my Intel HD Graphics 630) and it says it's 7,480% better, and my CPU vs the current top place (Core i9-14900KS VS my Core i5-7400) is 133% better. That was fun :,)
So, an Intel Core i7-2720QM - Means it's a 2 Gen? What Gen is Sandy Bridge?
Thank you!
You're welcome!
what's the different between intel core and intel evo? It's actually really hard to find any information online differentiating the 2 so I was wondering if anyone here would be able to clarify which of the 2 is better.
Hey there, great question! I may make a video on this sometime in the future but ill explain here for now.
Intel Evo is just a certification on certain intel processor based laptops that meet criteria such as the ones below:
- Last more than 9.5 hours on a single charge
- Offer FHD or higher displays with certain display specs
- Offer a backlit keyboard
- Have WiFi 6E (or higher)
- Have at least one TB4 port
- High quality speakers
- Use a FHD or higher resolution webcam
- Have some form of built in bio metric scanning for logging in (ie: fingerprint reader)
^ These are some of the requirements for a machine to be certified as intel evo. As you can see none of these have anything to do with the processor it self but rather to do with things around it. In short Evo is just a standard that gets labeled with any laptop that meets it (generally the more expensive ones). Evo based machines are still using the same processors are non evo machines.
Hope that helps!
@@SoulOfTechlove your explanations keep going ❤
Thanks man
You're welcome!
thank you
Welcome!
so if i just use my comp to check my e-mail, go on social media and watch movies streamed online then i don't need anything fancy like an i9. is an i7 still to fancy? or is it just right? by the time u read this who knows they might come out with a i10.
the equilivent of ' i 1' is a celeron or pentium
I like the new Intel 14th gen CPUs. It has a huge focus on battery life preservation. This benefits Windows laptops for non-stem business or casual use.
Unfortunately, competitive desktop gamers want power performance jumps instead of battery life improvement.
For sure the new Core series is taking a more Apple kind of approach, which definitely has big gains on power efficiency.
does every gen mean at least 1-2% improvement in performance than previsous gen of similar model? so 14th gen is 14% more beter than a 4th gen?
theres a large gap between 4th and 14th gen, so there must be minimum 14% better performance but I wouldn't be surprised if it 1000% more
Please do AMD ryzen series as well please
Hey, please see my video description
Wow
4610m is actually 4th gen processor.
Is it any Good
Can i use screenshot of this video for information purpose for facebook page to share with more people ? mentioning your channel ?
Yes that’s fine, please link the channel/video
Hey, what laptop was that. The one you used at 3:34
Legion Slim 7i
@@SoulOfTech thanks man. A subscription for the help😌
Here's an extreme example: What's better, an i3-12100 or non-overclocked i7-8700K? Yup, the i3-12100 has a 3.6% better multi-core score and massive 21% better single thread rating.
It's not meaningful to describe an Intel processor by its class (i3, i5, i7, i9) compared to its model number, so it's incredibly frustrating to see people advertise Intel processors by the former while omitting the latter on used marketplaces.
Normal people dont understand even though they can learn the information for free on the internet, they don't.
good video
Thanks!
All things considered, once you know the info this is a pretty easy type of video to make.... Jokes aside thanks for the info
Haha! Glad you liked it!

Hi maybe you could explain how the number of cores / threads vary with generation and processor class. Thank you for the great videos
bro dont use userbenchmark 💀💀💀
The point here is to explain generations not explain benchmarks
Bro, go make your own video, we here are happy with this one.
I mean... You got a lot of stuff just wrong.
You cherry picked examples where the newer version is better than an older higher-end version, but that's not even half the story. Depending on the testing you sometimes get 4th Gens that out perform 9th Gens in benchmarks. That's not the only thing that matters.
Most benchmarks run on the same instruction Sets that have been around forever. The biggest difference in Generations is the things they support. For example 7th Gen introduced H.265 encoding. So for a media server a 7th gen i3 will likely outperform a 6th Gen i7 if you are encoding or decoding H.265. Conversely a 7th & 8th Gen will pretty much perform the same for a media server without any noticeable differences.
Then you have the Instruction Sets. That's like a new thing that it can do. Like the 12th Gen introducing P-Cores & E-Cores, stuff like that makes much more difference. In a lot of ways the 11th Gen will out perform the 12th Gen, especially using the tests you used.
Bro, what the advantage of e core above p cores except the efficiency which nobody cares in pc?
Only true legends are still running an i5 6600K
