Core i5-4288U vs Core i5-4310M benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4288U performs better than the Core i5-4310M. Despite this, the Core i5-4310M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4310M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4288U. Also, the Core i5-4310M has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-4288U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4310M CPU because of its 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. Indeed, the Core i5-4288U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
