Mini Review

Intel Core i5-460M (BGA) advantages

  • The Core i5-460M has 46% better power consumption than the i5-7500.

Intel Core i5-7500 advantages

  • More CPU cores on the Core i5-7500 help to handle multiple simultaneous threads or programs.
  • Operating frequency of the microprocessor is higher than the frequency of the Intel Core i5-460M.
  • The Core i5-7500 supports AES technology, that provides AES encryption acceleration. The technology is valuable if you need to secure your disk or network data.
  • This CPU features AVX, AVX2, F16C and FMA3 instructions, introduced in the recent past. Although these extensions are not widely supported by applications yet, their support should improve in future apps.
  • The microprocessor supports faster DDR4-2400 memory, consequentally, it has much higher memory bandwidth, which is quite beneficial to memory bound tasks. Performance improvement in programs, that are not memory-bound, will be much lower than 125%.
  • The CPU is manufactured in a socket Socket 1151 compatible package. CPUs in this package can be removed from the socket for replacement or upgrade.

i5-460M vs i5-7500 specifications comparison

The graphs below demonstrate the difference between Core i5-7500 and Intel Core i5-460M most important characteristics. These features, together with an IPC (instructions per cycle) number, determine how well a processor performs. The "Number of cores / threads" graph displays the number of cores (darker area). Lighter area on the graph represents the number of additional threads, offered by Hyper-Threading technology. The "Operating frequency" chart uses dark color to represent base frequency, whereas 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. While the L3 cache cache is usually larger than the On-chip L2 cache, it is always slower.
