Core i5-10200H

The Core i5-10200H is a 4-core / 8-thread processor based on the Comet Lake-H (2020) architecture, manufactured on a 14 nm process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 4.1 GHz from a base frequency of 2.4 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 6 MB (total) of L3 cache, plus 256K (per core) of L2 cache and 64K (per core) of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 7,997, placing it in the Entry Level performance tier as a Aging generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 1,300, while multi-core reaches 4,392. Cinebench R23 multi-core (measuring sustained rendering workload performance) scores 5,372.

The Core i5-10200H fits into the BGA1440 socket and supports PCIe 3.0 with 16 total PCIe lanes for expansion cards and storage. It supports DDR4 memory at speeds up to DDR4-2933 (faster RAM improves bandwidth-sensitive workloads), with a maximum capacity of 128 GB across 2 channels (dual-channel doubles bandwidth). Integrated graphics: Intel UHD Graphics — allows display output without a dedicated GPU, useful for troubleshooting and light tasks.

Virtualization: Yes — enables running virtual machines efficiently (important for development and server workloads).

The Core i5-10200H has a rated TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 45 Watt — this indicates the amount of heat generated under sustained load and determines what cooling solution is needed. No stock cooler is included — you will need to purchase an aftermarket cooler separately.

Performance ranking position: #1460 out of all indexed processors.
