Core i5-3570 vs Core i5-4590S benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4590S is faster than the Core i5-3570. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3570 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 i5-3570 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4590S. Also, the Core i5-3570 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-4590S outputs less heat than Core i5-3570 thanks to a slightly 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 i5-3570 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
