Intel Core i5-5200U vs Intel Core i5-4460T

Core i5-5200U vs Core i5-4460T specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-5200U is faster than the Core i5-4460T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-4460T has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i5-5200U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-5200U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4460T. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i5-5200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4460T CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-5200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
