Core i7-4770K vs Custom 0405 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Custom 0405 is faster than the Core i7-4770K. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4770K in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-4770K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Custom 0405. The info from our database shows that the Custom 0405 has more L2 cache than the Core i7-4770K. Despite this, the Core i7-4770K has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Custom 0405.

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.
