Core i5-3330 vs Core i5-4460T comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-3330 beats the Core i5-4460T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-3330 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4460T. Also, the Core i5-3330 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-4460T outputs less heat than Core i5-3330 thanks to a 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. For instance, the Core i5-3330 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
