760K vs i5-4590 specifications comparison
The graphs below compare the most important characteristics of the Intel Core i5-4590 and AMD 760K microprocessors. These features, together with an IPC (instructions per cycle) number, determine how well a CPU performs. The "Operating frequency" graph uses dark color to represent base frequency, while lighter area is for extra frequency, provided by Turbo feature. Darker area on the "On-chip cache" graph is for the On-chip L2 cache. Lighter area is for the L3 cache cache. Although the L3 cache cache is usually larger than the On-chip L2 cache, it is always slower.
