Below is a comparison of Intel Core i5-4690 single-threaded performance with performance of other x86 processors. The difference in performance between Core i5-4690 and each of the listed microprocessors was calculated as an average of differences in 7 single-threaded benchmarks from our benchmark database. The list of test applications and programs is comprised of CINEBENCH R10 or R15 1 core tests, Super PI, wPrime using 1 core, as well as single-core versions of FLAC, LAME MP3, H.264, and XVid encoding programs. Please note that these benchmarks utilize only one core, hence they are not dependent on such CPU characteristics as the number of cores and Hyper-Threading.
Single-threaded performance of Intel Core i5 CPUs for Socket 1150
This graph compares the i5-4690 to other Core i5 CPUs. Major specifications differences between processors can be found in the "Specs" column. Since the tests run on a single core, the "Specs" column does not include the number of cores, or Hyper-Threading support. All chips in the chart below have 6MB L3 cache.
