i5-3470 vs i5-4670S estimated performance

The charts below show performance of Core i5-3470 and Core i5-4670S processors. Results for Core i5-3470 were determined based on a variety of tests. Performance numbers for Core i5-4670S were approximated from test results of other CPUs with the same core and microarchitecture. As a note, the estimate has greater error of margin than results obtained using real-world benchmarks. Also, this is an averaged performance, and the shown results may differ from results, that you may see in individual tests.

i5-3470 vs i5-4670S specifications comparison

The graphs below compare the most important Intel i5-3470 and Intel Core i5-4670S features. These characteristics, along with an IPC (instructions per cycle) number, determine how well a processor performs. The "Operating frequency" chart 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.

CPUIDs

The table below compares support for x86 extensions and technologies, as well as individual instructions and low-level features of the Intel Core i5-3470 and Intel Core i5-4670S microprocessors. Information in this table was retrieved from actual processors using CPUID instruction, and we also utilized internal timer to measure CPU frequency. Be aware that all technologies, disabled in BIOS or by a virtual machine, will be shown as not supported. Different steppings of Intel processors may also have slightly different features. In rare cases, measured frequency may differ from official specifications.
