Intel Core i7-3770S vs Intel Core i7-4710MQ

Core i7-3770S vs Core i7-4710MQ specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-3770S performs better than the Core i7-4710MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4710MQ 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. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-3770S has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4710MQ. Also, the Core i7-3770S has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4710MQ outputs less heat than Core i7-3770S thanks to a slightly lower TDP. 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 i7-3770S has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
