Intel® Core™ i5-4460S

The Intel Core i5-4460S is a desktop processor with 4 cores and 4 threads, built on the Haswell architecture (22 nm process). It launched in Apr 2014. Clocks run from 2.9 GHz base to 3.4 GHz boost. A 6-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR3 memory up to 32 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1150 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 65 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Core i5-4460S scores 1,861 in single-core performance and 4,659 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 2,945 for overall performance, 5,634 for productivity performance, 5,912 for creator performance, 4,484 for engineering performance and 6,748 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,165 per core, 1,165 per thread and 72 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 365. Its performance index is 36, so its overall performance is 64% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core i5-4460S scores 13,579 in integer math, 10,353 in floating-point math, 65,797 in compression, 1,171 in cryptography, 359 in physics simulation, 5,518 in vector SIMD, 28 in the prime sieve and 8,750 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 77% below in integer math, 77% below in floating-point math, 71% below in compression, 90% below in cryptography, 67% below in physics simulation, 64% below in vector SIMD, 58% below in the prime sieve and 61% below in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core i5-4460S has 4 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.90 GHz and boosts up to 3.40 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-4460S is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Core i5 family, uses the Haswell architecture, carries the codename Haswell and is manufactured on a 22 nm process. It launched in Apr 2014.

The Intel Core i5-4460S has 256 KB of L1 cache, 1 MB of L2 cache and 6 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 7.3 MB of cache, or 1.81 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Core i5-4460S has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 256 KB, L2 at 1 MB and L3 at 6 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 83% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core i5-4460S supports DDR3 memory, addresses up to 32 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR5, DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Core i5-4460S includes integrated graphics (Intel HD Graphics 4600) and clocks the graphics up to 1.10 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-4460S uses the FCLGA1150 socket, supports PCI Express 3.0 and provides up to 16 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Core i5-4460S has a rated TDP of 65 W.
