Intel Core i5-4440 vs Intel Core i5-6402P

Core i5-4440 vs Core i5-6402P specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6402P is faster than the Core i5-4440. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4440 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4440 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6402P. Despite this, the Core i5-6402P has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-6402P outputs less heat than Core i5-4440 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Core i5-4440 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
