Intel Core i7-4900MQ vs Intel Core i7-4910MQ

Core i7-4900MQ vs Core i7-4910MQ specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4900MQ is faster than the Core i7-4910MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4910MQ in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4910MQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4900MQ. Also, the Core i7-4910MQ has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core i7-4900MQ has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-4910MQ. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 i7-4900MQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
