Intel Core i3-1115G4 vs Intel Core i7-4712MQ

Core i3-1115G4 vs Core i7-4712MQ comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-1115G4 beats the Core i7-4712MQ in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4712MQ in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-4712MQ has significantly more cores than the Core i3-1115G4. Indeed, the Core i7-4712MQ has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-1115G4. It also has more threads than the Core i3-1115G4. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-1115G4 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-4712MQ. Also, the Core i3-1115G4 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-1115G4 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4712MQ CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core i3-1115G4 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-4712MQ. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i3-1115G4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
