Intel Core i5-3470 vs Intel Core i5-13400F

Core i5-3470 vs Core i5-13400F benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-13400F is faster than the Core i5-3470. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3470 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-13400F has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Core i5-3470 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-3470. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-3470 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-13400F. Despite this, the Core i5-13400F has a slightly higher turbo speed.

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 i5-3470 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
