Core i7-3537U vs Core i5-4590 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4590 performs better than the Core i7-3537U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3537U in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-4590 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-3537U. Indeed, the Core i5-4590 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i7-3537U. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4590 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-3537U. Also, the Core i5-4590 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-3537U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4590 CPU because of its 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. Indeed, the Core i7-3537U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
