Intel Core i7-10510Y vs Intel Core i3-10110Y

Intel Core i7-10510Y

► remove from comparison Intel i7-10510Y

The Intel Core i7-10510Y is an extremely power efficient quad-core SoC for small laptops and tablets based on the Comet Lake (CML-Y) generation and was announced in 2019. Compared to the similar Amber Lake processors (e.g. Core i7-8500Y), the only difference are two additional cores in the top models (except i3-10110Y). The processor cores are clocked between 1.2 and 4.5 GHz (all 4 cores 3.2 GHz max). Thanks to HyperThreading 8 threads can be used. Compared to the slower i5-10310Y, the level 3 cache is the full 8 MB of the chip. More information on Comet Lake and all the models and articles on it can be found& here.

Performance

While we have not tested a single system built around the 10510Y as of August 2023, it's realistic to expect the chip to be half as fast as the Core i5-10210U (Comet Lake, 4 cores, 8 threads, up to 4.2 GHz) in multi-thread workloads. Those 4 cores of the 10510Y are set to be very much constrained by the low TDP target leading to high DPC latencies and generally unresponsive system behaviour.

The integrated graphics adapter is still the same as in the previous generations. The Intel UHD Graphics 615 runs at 300 - 1050 MHz. Furthermore, the SoC integrates a VP9 and H.265 de- and encoder.

Power consumption

The Core i7 has a default TDP of 7 W (also known as the Power Limit 1). This can be changed by an OEM to anything between 4.5 W and 9 W if so desired, with clock rates and performance changing correspondingly. Either way, this CPU is a great option for passively cooled tablets, laptops, mini-PCs.

Core i7-10510Y is manufactured on a fairly old, as of late 2022, 14 nm Intel process for subpar energy efficiency.

Intel Core i3-10110Y

► remove from comparison Intel i3-10110Y

The Intel Core i3-10110Y is an extremely power efficient dual-core SoC for small laptops and tablets that was announced in August 2019. The faster models, like the Core i5-10310Y offer two additional cores however.

Performance

While we have not tested a single system built around the 10110Y as of August 2023, we have tested at least one laptop utilizing the 10100Y, an insignificantly slower chip (Amber Lake, 2 cores, 4 threads, up to 3.9 GHz.) Based on that, expect the 10110Y to be noticeably faster than the AMD 3050e. Performance of this kind is totally sufficient for basic day-to-day activities, as of late 2022.

Your mileage may vary depending on how high the CPU power limits are.

The integrated graphics adapter however is still the same as in the previous generations. It should be still called Intel UHD Graphics 615 and runs at 300 - 1000 MHz in the i3. Furthermore, the SoC integrates a VP9 and H.265 de- and encoder.

The TDP is specified at 7 Watts but can be varied from 5.5 to 9 Watt from the manufacturer (cTDP up/down) resulting in different performance (especially Turbo durations). Interestingly, the faster Core i5-10210Y with two more cores can be configured to lower 4.5 Watt.
