Core i5-760 vs Core i5-2400S benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-2400S is faster than the Core i5-760. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-760 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-760 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-2400S. Also, the Core i5-760 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-2400S outputs less heat than Core i5-760 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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 i5-760 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
