Core i5-4310M vs Core 2 Quad Q9505 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4310M performs better than the Core 2 Quad Q9505. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Quad Q9505 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i5-4310M that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4310M. A Core i5-4310M CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Quad Q9505 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i5-4310M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
