Core i3-10100F vs Core i5-4670K specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-10100F beats the Core i5-4670K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4670K in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-10100F has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-10100F has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-4670K. Also, the Core i3-10100F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-10100F CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4670K CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i3-10100F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
