Intel Core 7 240H

Intel Core 7 240H

The Intel Core 7 240H is a high-end mobile CPU for laptops of the Raptor Lake-H series (based on the Alder Lake architecture). It was announced in late 2024 and offers 6 performance cores (P-cores, Golden Cove architecture) and 4 of the 8 efficient cores possible (E-cores, Gracemont architecture). The P-cores support Hyper-Threading for 16 threads when combined with the E-cores. The clock rates range from 2.5 to 5.2 GHz (single-core boost) on the performance cluster and 1.8 to 4 GHz on the efficient cluster. The performance of the E-cores should be similar to old Skylake cores (comparable to the Core i7-6700HQ). All cores can use up to 24 MB L3 cache.

Compared to the older Core i7-13620H, the Core 7 240H offers higher clock speeds (especially Turbo Boost) and support for DDR5-5600.

Performance

Thanks to the improved clock speeds, the Core 7 240H should be able to slightly best the old i7-13620H. Still, the faster i7 models of the 13th gen offer more E-cores and therefore a clearly better multi-threaded performance.

Features

The integrated memory controller supports various memory types up to DDR5-5600 (up from DDR5-5200 of the 12th gen.). The Thread Director (in hardware) can help the operating system to decide which thread to use on the performance or efficient cores for the best performance. For AI tasks, the CPU also integrates GNA 3.0 and DL Boost (via AVX2). Quick Sync in version 8 is the same as in the Rocket Lake CPUs and supports MPEG-2, AVC, VC-1 decode, JPEG, VP8 decode, VP9, HEVC, and AV1 decode in hardware. The CPU now supports PCIe 5.0 x8 for a GPU and two PCIe 4.0 x4 for SSDs.

The integrated graphics adapter is based on the Xe-architecture and offers 64 of the 96 EUs (Execution Units) possible, clocked at up to 1.5GHz.

Power consumption

The Core 7 240H is rated at a TDP of 55W (PL1, 115W PL2) and is manufactured on an improved 10nm process (Intel 7) that allows for higher clock speeds compared to the 12th gen CPUs.
