Intel Core i5-4570 vs Intel Core 7 150U

Core i5-4570 vs Core 7 150U benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-4570 beats the Core 7 150U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 7 150U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core 7 150U has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Core i5-4570 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-4570. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4570 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core 7 150U.

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 i5-4570 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
