Core i3-10100T vs Core i7-4790S benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-10100T beats the Core i7-4790S in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4790S in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4790S has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-10100T. Also, the Core i7-4790S has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-10100T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4790S CPU because of its significantly 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 i3-10100T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
