Core i5-4570T vs Core i7-5600U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4570T performs better than the Core i7-5600U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-5600U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4570T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-5600U. Also, the Core i5-4570T has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-5600U outputs less heat than Core i5-4570T thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

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.
