Core i5-4570T vs Core i7-4600M specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-4600M beats the Core i5-4570T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4570T in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and 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 i7-4600M. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i5-4570T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4600M CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i5-4570T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
