Intel Core 5 130UL vs Intel Core i5-14490F Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark database contains no direct head-to-head comparison scores between the Intel Core 5 130UL and the Intel Core i5-14490F. The recorded data for the Core i5-14490F includes a full suite of Cinebench and PassMark results, while the Core 5 130UL has no benchmark entries. Consequently, the data shows a complete absence of side-by-side measured outcomes, and the wins tally stands at zero for both processors.

The Core i5-14490F, however, has extensive recorded measurements. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score reaches 23000, while the single-core result is 3247. In Cinebench R20, the multicore score is 9660 and the single-core score is 1363. Cinebench R15 shows 2318 for multicore and 327 for single-core. These scores place the processor at the 86th percentile among all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 38149.

PassMark results for the Core i5-14490F further characterize its performance. The multithread score is 28662, and the single-thread score is 3873 (recorded twice under slightly different test names). Integer math delivers 87844, floating point math reaches 66558, and extended instructions score 21731. Data compression scores 340026, data encryption scores 18225, random string sorting scores 35608, and find prime numbers scores 122. The physics test records 2093.

The nearest rivals in the database for the Core i5-14490F provide context for these numbers. The Intel Core Ultra 5 245T has an average score of 38194, which is 0.1% higher than the Core i5-14490F. The Intel Core i5-13600KF scores 38103, 0.1% lower. The AMD Ryzen 7 250 scores 38221, 0.2% higher, and the Intel Core i5-13600HX scores 38261, 0.3% higher. These deltas are minimal, indicating that the Core i5-14490F sits firmly within a tight performance cluster.

Since the Core 5 130UL lacks recorded benchmarks, no comparison of specific workloads can be made. The absence of data for one side of this comparison means the analysis cannot quantify relative strengths in Cinebench or PassMark tests. The database simply shows no measured wins for either processor in a direct matchup.

Where Each One Wins

The Core i5-14490F demonstrates clear strengths across every benchmark category where data exists. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 23000 indicates substantial parallel processing capability, which is reinforced by the PassMark multithread score of 28662. The single-core Cinebench R23 score of 3247 and PassMark single-thread score of 3873 show strong per-thread performance as well. These results, combined with the 86th percentile ranking, suggest the processor is positioned well above the median CPU in the database.

The Core i5-14490F also shows particular capability in memory and data-intensive operations. The PassMark data compression score of 340026 is notably high, and the integer math score of 87844 indicates solid arithmetic throughput. The extended instructions score of 21731 and floating point math score of 66558 add to the picture of a well-rounded desktop processor.

The Core 5 130UL, by contrast, has no benchmark records in the database. Without measured scores, the analysis cannot identify any workload where it wins. Its specifications, however, do suggest certain design priorities. The processor uses 10 cores and 12 threads, which is fewer threads than the Core i5-14490F's 10 cores and 16 threads. The base clock of 1.60 GHz is lower than the 2.50 GHz of the Core i5-14490F, and the boost clock of 4.70 GHz trails the 5.00 GHz of the rival. The thermal design power of 15 watts for the Core 5 130UL is substantially lower than the 65 watts of the Core i5-14490F, indicating a focus on efficiency rather than peak performance.

The integrated graphics present on the Core 5 130UL, listed as Iris Xe Graphics 80EU, gives it a capability that the Core i5-14490F lacks, as the latter has no integrated graphics. This could be relevant in systems without a discrete GPU, though no benchmark data confirms actual performance. The Core 5 130UL also supports PCIe Gen 4 with 8 lanes from the CPU, while the Core i5-14490F supports PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes, suggesting different expansion and bandwidth priorities.

PCIe support differs. The Core i5-14490F uses PCIe Gen 5 with 16 lanes from the CPU, while the Core 5 130UL uses PCIe Gen 4 with 8 lanes. The die size for the Core i5-14490F is recorded as 215 mm², while no die size is listed for the Core 5 130UL. The part number for the Core i5-14490F is SRN35, while the Core 5 130UL has an unknown part number. Release dates differ, with the Core 5 130UL released in 2024 and the Core i5-14490F released in 2023.

Architecture Differences

The Core 5 130UL carries the codename Raptor Lake-PS and belongs to the Core 5 generation under Raptor Lake-PS. The Core i5-14490F carries the codename Raptor Lake-R and belongs to the Core i5 generation under Raptor Lake Refresh. Both share the Raptor Lake architecture and the 10 nm Intel process node.

The Core 5 130UL is classified as a desktop processor with active production status, and it includes Iris Xe Graphics 80EU as integrated graphics. The Core i5-14490F is also a desktop processor with active production status, but it has no integrated graphics. This difference affects system configurations, as the Core 5 130UL can operate without a discrete GPU, while the Core i5-14490F requires one for display output.

The thread count difference of 16 versus 12 stems from the core arrangement. With 10 cores on both, the Core i5-14490F likely uses a hybrid configuration with more hyper-threaded performance cores, though the database does not specify the exact composition. The lower TDP of the Core 5 130UL at 15 watts indicates a design aimed at reduced power consumption, which aligns with its lower clock speeds and smaller L3 cache. The Core i5-14490F, with its 65 watt TDP, targets higher sustained performance.

The PCIe generation difference, Gen 5 with 16 lanes for the Core i5-14490F versus Gen 4 with 8 lanes for the Core 5 130UL, points to different platform capabilities. The Core i5-14490F supports newer, faster expansion options and more bandwidth for GPUs or storage devices. The Core 5 130UL offers more limited expansion, consistent with its efficiency-focused positioning. The die size of 215 mm² for the Core i5-14490F provides a physical reference, while no equivalent measurement exists for the Core 5 130UL.
