Core i5-4670 vs N97 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4670 is faster than the N97. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the N97 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4670 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N97.

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 i5-4670 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
