Intel Core i5-750 vs Intel Core 2 Quad Q9505

Core i5-750 vs Core 2 Quad Q9505 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-750 is faster than the Core 2 Quad Q9505. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Quad Q9505 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-750. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-750 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
