Intel Core i5-1335UE vs Intel Core i7-11375H Comparison

The Verdict

The data presents a clear but narrow picture. The Intel Core i5-1335UE wins every recorded head-to-head benchmark against the Intel Core i7-11375H, but the margins are consistently slim. Across all six Cinebench tests, the i5-1335UE leads by 2.8% to 2.9%. This is not a generational gap; it is a measured edge in both single-core and multi-core workloads.

For a new system, the i5-1335UE is the better pick. It offers higher Cinebench scores, a newer architecture, and a dramatically lower TDP of 15 watts compared to 28 watts. The i7-11375H still holds its own in the database's average benchmark score, posting 3018 against 2907 for the i5-1335UE, and it sits at the 52nd percentile versus the 51st for its rival. That average includes a Geekbench result that the i5-1335UE does not have in the recorded data. If you are comparing raw aggregate performance across all recorded tests, the i7-11375H edges ahead. If you are comparing the Cinebench suite specifically, the i5-1335UE wins every time.

The choice depends on what you prioritize. The i5-1335UE is the efficient, modern option with more cores and threads. The i7-11375H is the older, higher-TDP part with a higher boost clock and more PCIe lanes. Neither part shows a dominant advantage, so the decision should rest on platform needs and workload patterns rather than raw score chasing.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different Intel generations and target different mobile segments. The i5-1335UE is built on Raptor Lake, specifically Raptor Lake-U, and was released in early 2023. The i7-11375H is a Tiger Lake-H part from the 11th Gen Core series, released in early 2021. Both use a 10 nm process node from Intel, so the manufacturing process is identical. The die size differs, with the i7-11375H measuring 146.1 mm², while the i5-1335UE has no recorded die size.

Core counts are a major differentiator. The i5-1335UE has 10 cores and 12 threads, while the i7-11375H has only 4 cores and 8 threads. That is a 6-core and 4-thread advantage for the i5-1335UE. Cache configuration is similar at first glance: both have 80 KB of L1 per core, 1.25 MB of L2 per core, and 12 MB of shared L3. But the per-core L2 and L1 figures apply to each core, so the total cache scales with core count. The i5-1335UE effectively has more total L1 and L2 cache because it has more cores.

Memory support also diverges. The i5-1335UE supports both DDR4 and DDR5, while the i7-11375H is limited to DDR4. Both run dual-channel memory. The i7-11375H has a recorded memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s, while the i5-1335UE has no bandwidth figure in the database. PCIe connectivity differs significantly: the i5-1335UE provides Gen 4 with 8 lanes from the CPU, while the i7-11375H provides Gen 4 with 20 lanes. That is a substantial difference for systems that need more expansion or storage bandwidth.

Integrated graphics are not equal. The i5-1335UE carries Iris Xe Graphics with 80 execution units, while the i7-11375H has Iris XE with 96 execution units. That gives the older part 16 more EUs, which could matter for light gaming or media tasks. Both parts are locked, so no multiplier unlocking is available on either.

Specification Differences

The two chips differ in nearly every major specification except for process node and some cache details. The i5-1335UE has 10 cores and 12 threads, while the i7-11375H has 4 cores and 8 threads. Base clocks differ substantially: the i5-1335UE runs at 1300 MHz, while the i7-11375H runs at 3000 MHz. Boost clocks favor the i7-11375H at 5.00 GHz, compared to 4.50 GHz for the i5-1335UE.

TDP is a clear split. The i5-1335UE draws 15 watts, the i7-11375H draws 28 watts. Sockets are different: BGA 1744 for the i5-1335UE, BGA 1449 for the i7-11375H. Architecture and codename differ: Raptor Lake-U versus Tiger Lake-H. Generation labels reflect this: Core i5 (Raptor Lake-U) versus Core i7 (Tiger Lake-H).

Memory support favors the i5-1335UE with both DDR4 and DDR5, while the i7-11375H only supports DDR4. The i7-11375H has a recorded memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s, while the i5-1335UE has none recorded. PCIe connectivity favors the i7-11375H with Gen 4 and 20 CPU lanes, versus Gen 4 and 8 lanes for the i5-1335UE. Integrated graphics favor the i7-11375H with 96 EUs, versus 80 EUs for the i5-1335UE.

The i7-11375H also has a recorded die size of 146.1 mm², a part number of SRKH4, a series designation of Core 11th Gen, and a launch MSRP of $482. The i5-1335UE has none of these recorded. Release dates differ by about two years, with the i5-1335UE released in early 2023 and the i7-11375H released in early 2021.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head data includes six Cinebench tests, and the i5-1335UE wins all of them. The margins are remarkably consistent. In multi-core tests, the i5-1335UE leads by 2.8% across the board. Cinebench R15 multi-core shows 1013 versus 985, Cinebench R20 multi-core shows 4221 versus 4105, and Cinebench R23 multi-core shows 10052 versus 9775. Each is a 2.8% delta.

Single-core results follow the same pattern. Cinebench R15 single-core gives the i5-1335UE a 142 against 138, a 2.9% lead. Cinebench R20 single-core gives 595 against 579, a 2.8% lead. Cinebench R23 single-core gives 1419 against 1380, a 2.8% lead. There is no single test where the i7-11375H closes the gap or flips the result.

The consistency of these margins is notable. The i5-1335UE does not pull ahead by a large amount in any single test, but it does not lose a single one either. The 2.8% to 2.9% spread suggests a steady, small advantage in both throughput and latency-bound workloads. The i7-11375H compensates with a higher boost clock of 5.00 GHz and a higher base clock of 3.00 GHz, but the i5-1335UE's additional cores and threads appear to offset that clock advantage in multi-core tests, while its own 4.50 GHz boost keeps single-core results competitive.

The i7-11375H does have Geekbench results in its own record: 5383 multi-core and 1800 single-core. The i5-1335UE has no Geekbench scores in the database, so a direct comparison there is not possible. The average benchmark score also favors the i7-11375H at 3018, versus 2907 for the i5-1335UE. That difference is about 3.8%, driven partly by the inclusion of Geekbench data. In the recorded Cinebench head-to-head, however, the i5-1335UE is the clear winner.

Where Each One Wins

The i5-1335UE wins in every recorded Cinebench benchmark, making it the better choice for rendering and CPU-bound productivity tasks that rely on those workloads. Its 10 cores and 12 threads provide a structural advantage over the 4 cores and 8 threads of the i7-11375H. The 15-watt TDP also makes it the better fit for thin-and-light laptops or fanless designs where thermal headroom is limited. It supports newer DDR5 memory, which gives it a path to faster memory subsystems in compatible platforms. Its 8 PCIe Gen 4 lanes are sufficient for standard storage and GPU connections, though not for heavy expansion.

The i7-11375H wins in areas that the Cinebench suite does not measure directly. It has a higher average benchmark score of 3018, placing it at the 52nd percentile versus the 51st for the i5-1335UE. Its Geekbench scores, 5383 multi-core and 1800 single-core, are recorded and suggest strong general-purpose performance. The 5.00 GHz boost clock is the highest of the two, which can help in lightly threaded tasks that depend on maximum frequency. Its 96 EU integrated graphics exceed the 80 EU part in the i5-1335UE, so it is the better option for iGPU-dependent workloads. The 20 PCIe Gen 4 lanes support more storage devices or external connectivity. The 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth gives it a quantified memory throughput advantage. The i7-11375H also carries a launch MSRP of $482, while the i5-1335UE has no recorded price, but the database does not include performance-per-dollar metrics.

For a new build, the i5-1335UE is the more future-proof option: newer architecture, more cores, lower power draw, and DDR5 support. For an existing Tiger Lake platform or a workload that leverages the i7-11375H's higher clocks, PCIe lanes, and stronger iGPU, the older chip still holds value. The data does not show a dominant winner across all metrics, so the final call rests on platform compatibility and workload priorities.
