Intel Core i5-11500B vs Intel Core i5-10200H vs Intel Core i9-11900KB

Intel Core i5-11500B

Der Intel Core i5-11500B ist ein Hexa-Core-Prozessor für Gaming-Notebooks, kleine Workstations oder auch Mini-PCs. Er basiert auf die Tiger-Lake-Architektur (H45) und wurde im 2. Quartal 2021 präsentiert. Der Chip bietet einen TDP von 65 Watt (konfigurierbar). Die sechs Prozessorkerne können von 3,3 bis 4,6 GHz (Einzelkern-Turbo) takten. Der Prozessor bietet 12 MB Level 3 Cache und unterstützt DDR4-RAM mit bis zu 3.200 MT/s. Die integrierte Grafik basiert auf der Xe-Architektur und ist UHD Graphics benannt (32 EUs). Im 11500B taktet sie von 350 bis 1.450 MHz. Der Chip wird im 10 nm SuperFin Prozess gefertigt.

Performance

Die Leistung des Intel Core i5-11500B hängt primär von der Leistungsfähigkeit der verbauten Kühleinheit ab. Zudem lässt sich die TDP des SoC auch absenken. Grundsätzlich sollte der Intel Core i5-11500B aber etwas mehr Leistung als ein Intel Core i5-11400H bieten.

Features

Wie bei den kleineren Tiger-Lake-Chips wird auch hier WLAN (Wi-Fi 6E) und Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4  im Chip (teil-)integriert für schnellere, günstige und platzsparende Implementierungen in Notebooks. Des Weiteren bietet der i5-11500B 20 PCIe 4.0 Lanes.

Intel Core i5-10200H

The Intel Core i5-10200H is a fast quad-core processor for laptops with four cores based on the Comet Lake-H series (4th generation of Skylake architecture). The processor clocks at between 2.4 and 4.1 GHz  and can execute up to eight threads simultaneously thanks to Hyper-Threading. According to Intel, the CPU is manufactured on 14nm (14nm++) process.

The Comet Lake architecture is similar to Coffee Lake and offers the same features and is produced in the same 14nm process. Other than the improved clock rates, the memory controller now also supports faster DDR4-2933 RAM. More information on Comet Lake and all the models and articles on it can be found here.

The Core i5-10200H supports no vPro, TXT or SIPP. These business features are available in the faster (and later released) Core i5-10400H (2.6 - 4.6 GHz).

Performance

The performance is only minimal better than the Core i5-9300H thanks to the support for faster DDR4-2933 RAM. This means, the CPU is well suited for demanding tasks, although the faster versions offer a significantly higher Turbo Boost clock speed for faster single core execution. 

Power consumption

This 10th gen Comet Lake processor has a default TDP (also known as the long-term power limit) of 45 W, a value that laptop manufacturers are allowed to reduce somewhat, 35 W being the lower limit. Doing so will result in lower clock speeds and lower performance. Either way, this CPU is too power-hungry to be used as the base of a passively cooled laptop.

Intel Core i5-10200H is built with an old, as of late 2022, 14 nm Intel process for subpar energy efficiency.

Intel Core i9-11900KB

The Intel Core i9-11900KB is an Octa-Core-CPU that was used in the Intel Beast Canyon NUC. It is based on the Tiger-Lake-H45 series and was announced in the second quarter of 2021. The processor cores can clock from 3.3 to 5.3 GHz, all cores at once can reach up to 4.9 GHz. The CPU features 24 MB level 3 cache and DDR4-3200 memory. The integrated UHD graphics card is based on the Xe-architecture with 32 cores and clocks up to 1.45 GHz.

As with the slower Tiger Lake-H CPUs, the 11900KB has a partly integrated WiFi 6E and Thunderbolt 4 in the chip. Furthermore, the 11900KB supports 20 PCIe 4.0 lanes.

The TDP is rated at 65 Watt with 3.3. GHz base clock and can be configured to 55 Watt (cTDP-down).
