Core i7-9850HE Details

For users seeking a capable mobile processor with strong single-threaded performance and integrated graphics, the Intel Core i7-9850HE offers a compelling option, particularly for productivity and light creative workloads. Launched in June 2019, this processor is based on Intel's Coffee Lake-HR architecture, built on a 14 nm process, and targets the mobile market segment. While it's now over four years old, its performance remains relevant in its class, especially for systems where discrete graphics are not required.

The Core i7-9850HE features a 6-core, 12-thread design, enabled by Intel Hyper-Threading, allowing it to efficiently handle multithreaded applications and multitasking. It operates at a base clock of 2.7 GHz and can boost up to 4.4 GHz, depending on workload and thermal conditions. The processor is packaged in a BGA 1440 form factor, with a TDP of 45 W, making it suitable for mid-sized laptops and mobile workstations. It supports DDR4 memory at up to 2666 MT/s via a dual-channel interface, with a memory bandwidth of 42.7 GB/s. The L3 cache is 8.583 MiB, while L1 and L2 caches are 0.061 MiB and 0.244 MiB, respectively.

Integrated into the chip is Intel's UHD Graphics 630, which provides basic graphics performance suitable for everyday tasks, office applications, and light multimedia playback. It supports up to three display outputs, though detailed GPU specifications such as shader count and max frequency are not provided. The processor supports a range of advanced technologies, including AVX, AVX2, BMI1, BMI2, FMA3, CLMUL, F16C, EIST, TXT, VT-x, VT-d, and TSX, ensuring compatibility with modern software and virtualization environments.

In benchmark testing, the Core i7-9850HE achieves an overall score of 5342, ranking #587 out of 2060 processors. Its single-core score is 5538, placing it at #525, while its multicore score is 5048, ranking #607. These results place it between the Core i5-10400 and the Core i7-1068NG7 in overall performance, with the single-core performance slightly better than the multicore result. The processor is notably outperformed by modern high-end CPUs like the Core Ultra 9 285K and Ryzen Threadripper models, but it still holds its own against many mid-tier and older desktop processors.

As of March 2026, the Core i7-9850HE is best suited for users who prioritize CPU performance over cutting-edge graphics or power efficiency. It remains a solid choice for business laptops, entry-level content creation, and general computing, particularly in systems where integrated graphics are sufficient and a discrete GPU is not needed. While not a top-tier performer by today's standards, it delivers a balanced mix of performance, efficiency, and feature support for its target market.
