I have two of the same model of laptop(Thinkpad T580), one with an i5-8250u, and one with an i7-8650u.
Im curious to test how much performance boost, if any the i7 has over the i5. Word on the street is the i7 really isnt much better than the i5 due to thermal throttling. Is there a good way to test this? Im sure if I stress each cpu heavily they will both throttle, but is there a way to record or graph how much work each cpu is doing, its clock speed and temp in a way that each cpus performace can be compared?
Thanks
