Core i7-4770K vs Core i3-1125G4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4770K is faster than the Core i3-1125G4. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-1125G4 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. The Core i3-1125G4 outputs less heat than Core i7-4770K thanks to a significantly 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 i7-4770K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
