Core i3-8130U vs Core i5-4460T comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-8130U performs better than the Core i5-4460T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-4460T has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-8130U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-8130U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4460T. Also, the Core i3-8130U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-8130U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4460T CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-8130U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
