Intel Core i7-4790T vs Intel Core i3-10100F vs Intel Core i7-4790S

Intel Core i7-4790T

► remove from comparison Intel 4790T

The Intel Core i7-4790T is a desktop processor based on the Haswell architecture. It was announced in the second quarter of 2014 and integrates four cores (8 threads) that clock between 2.7 - 3.9 GHz.

Intel Core i3-10100F

► remove from comparison Intel i3-10100F

The Intel Core i3-10100F is an entry level quad-core processor for desktop PCs based on the Comet Lake-S architecture. It offers four cores clocked at 3.6 - 4.3 GHz with HyperThreading / SMT support (8 threads). The CPU is still manufactured on 14nm++ and does not feature an integrated graphics card. Compared to the older Coffee Lake Core i3-9100F, the i3-10100F offers a 100 MHz higher Boost speed, HyperThreading and support for faster DDR4 memory (2666 MHz).

Performance

While we have not tested a single system powered by the 10100F as of August 2023, it's reasonable to expect the chip to be just slightly faster than the Core i5-10200H.

Intel specifies the CPU with a TDP of 65 Watt. For desktops that means that the processor won't need big cooling solutions and can be used in small cases.

Intel Core i7-4790S

► remove from comparison Intel 4790S

The Intel Core i7-4790S is a high end quad-core desktop processor using the Haswell architecture. It clocks at 3.2 - 4 GHz and can run 8 threads at once thanks to HyperThreading. Compared to the similar named Core i7-4790K, the 4790S clocks a bit lower, is rated at a lower TDP of 65 W and offers no open multiplier for overclocking.
