Core i7-3630QM vs Core i7-3635QM specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-3635QM is faster than the Core i7-3630QM. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3630QM 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. Both the Core i7-3630QM and Core i7-3635QM have the same clock speed. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. 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.

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 i7-3630QM has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
