Intel Core i7-7500U vs Intel Core i3-4130

Core i7-7500U vs Core i3-4130 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-4130 is faster than the Core i7-7500U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-7500U in all gaming tests too.

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 i3-4130 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-7500U. A Core i7-7500U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-4130 CPU because of its 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 i7-7500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
