Core i7-4500U vs Core i7-930 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-930 performs better than the Core i7-4500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4500U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-930 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i7-4500U that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-4500U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-930 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4500U. Also, the Core i7-930 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-4500U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-930 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i7-4500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
