Core i7-4770 vs Core i5-3210M comparison
In our benchmarks, the Core i7-4770 beats the Core i5-3210M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3210M in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-4770 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-3210M. Indeed, the Core i7-4770 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-3210M. It also has more threads than the Core i5-3210M. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4770 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-3210M. Also, the Core i7-4770 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-3210M 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.
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.
