Is a standard 4-core / 8-thread CPU enough for gaming and a lot of background tasks at the same time? Maybe Core i7-1065G7 will help us find the right answer for you. It is (still) a new CPU offer from this year, combining 8 threads and pretty good TDP levels. At the same time, i7-9750H is here – a powerful and hungry 12-thread CPU.

Let the fight begins.

Quick Specs

Core i7-1065G7 is a bit shy when it comes to raw CPU power. It has a lower core-count compared to the i7-9750H (4 cores vs 6 cores), lower CPU frequencies (1.30 GHz / 3.90 GHz to 2.60 GHz / 4.50 GHz), and 2MB less cache – 6MB vs 8MB. The i7-1065G7 shines when it comes to memory support, DDR4-3200; LPDDR4-2133 (DDR4-2666; LPDDR3-2133 for the i7-9750H) and TDP levels – its typical TDP is 15W, while i7-9750H has huge TDP – 45W.

One of the biggest differences between the two CPUs is the IGPs inside of them – the new Intel Iris Plus G7 for i7-1065G7 and UHD 630 for i7-9750H.

	Intel Core i7-1065G7	Intel Core i7-9750H
Cores / Threads	4 / 8	6 / 12
Base / Max frequency	1.30 – 3.90 GHz	2.60 – 4.50 GHz
Cache	8 MB Intel Smart Cache	12 MB Intel Smart Cache
TDP / up / down	15W / 25W / 12W	45W / – / 35W
Memory support	DDR4-3200; LPDDR4-2133	DDR4-2666; LPDDR3-2133

CPU Benchmarks

Well, this is a big win for the i7-9750H – 85% better result in Cinebench.

GPU Benchmarks

Intel Iris Plus G7 is 45% faster than the UHD 630. So, the new Intel IGP is a capable one.

Verdict

We all saw what happened, Core i7-1065G7 has a much faster IGP while i7-9750H wins when it comes to raw CPU power. The right choice is up to you – if you don’t play games and you need a powerful CPU, the i7-9750H is the right one. If you use your notebook for video editing, Photoshop, or you just need more snappy PC, i7-9750H will be much faster compared to the i7-1065G7.

Core i7-1065G7 is a good choice for the ones who play light games from time to time (and don’t need top-end CPU performance) – DOTA 2 and CS:GO will run much smoother with Iris Plus G7 while UHD 630 will struggle a lot, even on medium settings. A quick note – 99% of the devices equipped with the i7-9750H will have a dedicated GPU, so, i7-9750H with UHD 630 only is a very rare case. In addition, the i7-1065G7 can be found in thinner and lighter devices because of its lower TDP levels. Core i7-9750H needs more sufficient cooling and dissipates more heat, which means thicker devices (because of the bigger and heavier cooling solutions) with shorter battery life.

What you need – thin and light notebook, with acceptable CPU performance and good IGP power or a bigger and thicker laptop, which has a much faster CPU, slower IGP, and shorter battery life?
