Intel Core i7-4770 vs Intel Core i3-N305

Core i7-4770 vs Core i3-N305 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4770 is faster than the Core i3-N305. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-N305 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i3-N305 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-4770. Indeed, the Core i3-N305 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i7-4770. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4770 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-N305. Also, the Core i7-4770 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i3-N305 outputs less heat than Core i7-4770 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core i3-N305 has more L2 cache than the Core i7-4770. Despite this, the Core i7-4770 has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Core i3-N305.

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 i7-4770 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
