Core i5-4570T vs A10-7890K benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A10-7890K beats the Core i5-4570T in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-4570T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the A10-7890K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-4570T. Also, the A10-7890K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-4570T CPU outputs less heat than a A10-7890K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the A10-7890K has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-4570T

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. Indeed, the Core i5-4570T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
