Intel Core i7-3770 vs Intel Core i7-4770

Core i7-3770 vs Core i7-4770 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4770 is faster than the Core i7-3770. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3770 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. According to our data, the Core i7-3770 and Core i7-4770 have the same clock speed. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i7-3770 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4770 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

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 i7-3770 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
