The big news for Apple users is the six cores in the Core i7- 8750H. To show the performance we expect, we've compiled the results from several laptops equipped with high-end 7th-gen CPUs, including Core i7-7700HQ that's used in MacBook Pro 15. We'll compare them to the results from laptop with the Core i7- 8750H in the new 2018 MacBook Pro 15.. You'll see varying amounts of performance gains based on how optimized CPUs are, and the story is still the same It's ton faster.. IDG new 8th-gen Core i7- 8750H in MacBook Pro 15 would give you about performance increase over MacBook Pro in multi-threaded tasks.. The verdict is simple The Core i7 Coffee Lake H has advantage on threaded tasks, and advantage once you get to tasks that can use all of those CPU cores.. IDG Thanks to very high clock speeds when given threaded tasks such the Core i7 Coffee Lake H CPU in MacBook Pro 15 will be faster than its direct predecessor.. The Core i7- 8750H result is from MSI GS65 Stealth Thin, while Core i7-7700HQ performance is from Asus ROG Zephyrus.. Based on what we're seeing with the Polaris-based GPU in Core i7-8705G, with 20 compute units buffed with High Bandwidth Cache and HBM2 RAM, we'd expect the Polaris-based Radeon Pro 555X, with its 12 compute units and GDDR5 RAM, to be slower by bit.. Radeon Pro 555X in the new 2018 MacBook Pro 15 should fall below that of Kaby Lake G-series of chips in HP Spectre x360 15. But to have Apple upgrade MacBook Pro to CPU that came out just three months ago, rather is huge improvement responsiveness from the company..
