Core i5-3570K vs Core i5-4670S benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-3570K is faster than the Core i5-4670S. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4670S in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-3570K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4670S. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. The Core i5-4670S outputs less heat than Core i5-3570K 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 i5-3570K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
