Intel Core i7-4770S vs Intel Core i7-4800MQ

Core i7-4770S vs Core i7-4800MQ comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4770S performs better than the Core i7-4800MQ. Despite this, the Core i7-4800MQ has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4770S has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4800MQ. Also, the Core i7-4770S has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4800MQ outputs less heat than Core i7-4770S thanks to a slightly 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 i7-4770S has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
