Intel Core i7-6700T vs Intel Core i7-7700T

Core i7-6700T vs Core i7-7700T specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-6700T is faster than the Core i7-7700T. Despite this, the Core i7-7700T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-7700T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-6700T. Also, the Core i7-7700T 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, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache and 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 i7-6700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
