Intel Core i7-8565U vs Intel Core i7-4702MQ

Core i7-8565U vs Core i7-4702MQ comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-8565U beats the Core i7-4702MQ in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4702MQ in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-4702MQ has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-8565U. Despite this, the Core i7-8565U has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-8565U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4702MQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i7-8565U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-4702MQ. The Core i7-8565U also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 i7-8565U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
