Core i5-7400T Details

Ranked #867 of 2060 in overall performance, the Intel Core i5-7400T delivers a balanced mix of efficiency and capability that remains relevant in low-power desktop applications. Despite being released in January 2017, its 35 W TDP and 14 nm Kaby Lake architecture make it a viable option for systems where power consumption and thermal output are priorities. As of March 2026, the processor still holds a competitive edge against several older and mid-tier CPUs, particularly in single-threaded workloads.

At the heart of the Core i5-7400T are four cores with no simultaneous multithreading, clocked at a base frequency of 2.4 GHz and capable of boosting up to 3.0 GHz on a single core. The processor operates on the LGA-1151 socket and supports DDR4-2400 and DDR3L-1600 memory via a dual-channel interface, with a maximum memory capacity of 64 GiB. It features 6 MiB of L3 cache and 1 MiB of L2 cache, with L1 caches totaling 0.25 MiB—typical for its generation.

The integrated HD Graphics 630 GPU, while modest by today’s standards, provides adequate performance for light multimedia tasks and office applications. It supports up to three displays and operates at a base frequency of 350 MHz, with a burst frequency of 1.0 GHz. The GPU includes 24 execution units and is capable of handling basic video playback and light gaming at lower settings.

In benchmark testing, the Core i5-7400T achieves a single-core score of 5184, placing it at #818 among 2060 processors, and a multicore score of 4745, ranking #910. These results indicate that the processor excels in single-threaded performance, outperforming many older quad-core CPUs and holding its own against several modern low-power alternatives. However, its multicore performance lags behind more recent processors, especially those with higher core counts and advanced architectures.

Key features include support for AVX, AVX2, and AES-NI, along with Intel’s Turbo Boost 2.0 and Enhanced SpeedStep technologies. The processor also supports hardware virtualization via Intel VT-x and VT-d, making it suitable for virtualization tasks and enterprise environments. ECC memory support is absent, limiting its use in high-reliability workstations.

In summary, the Core i5-7400T remains a solid choice for entry-level desktops, home office systems, and small form-factor builds where low power consumption and integrated graphics are priorities. While it is no longer competitive with modern high-end processors, its efficiency and reliability ensure it continues to serve niche markets effectively as of March 2026.
