Intel Core i5-4460T vs Intel Core i7-4930MX

Core i5-4460T vs Core i7-4930MX comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-4930MX beats the Core i5-4460T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-4930MX has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4930MX has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4460T. Also, the Core i7-4930MX has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-4460T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4930MX CPU because of its significantly 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 i5-4460T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
