Core i5-4570T vs Core 2 Quad Q9505 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Quad Q9505 beats the Core i5-4570T in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-4570T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i5-4570T has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-4570T has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core 2 Quad Q9505. A Core i5-4570T 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. In terms of cache, the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-4570T

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