Core i5-4670K vs Phenom II X6 1100T comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4670K performs better than the Phenom II X6 1100T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Phenom II X6 1100T in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Phenom II X6 1100T has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i5-4670K has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-4670K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Phenom II X6 1100T. In terms of cache, the Phenom II X6 1100T has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-4670K. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Core i5-4670K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
