Intel Core i7-4702MQ vs Intel Core i7-4910MQ

Core i7-4702MQ vs Core i7-4910MQ comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4910MQ is faster than the Core i7-4702MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4702MQ 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 i7-4910MQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4702MQ. Also, the Core i7-4910MQ has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-4702MQ CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4910MQ 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. The Core i7-4910MQ also has slightly more 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 i7-4702MQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
