Core i7-4702MQ Details

Built on Intel's 22 nm manufacturing process, the Core i7-4702MQ is a quad-core processor from the Haswell generation, designed for mainstream mobile workstations and high-performance laptops. Released in 2013, it represents a mid-tier offering from its era, combining four cores with eight threads via Hyper-Threading to deliver balanced performance across productivity and multimedia tasks. While the 22 nm process was mature by 2026, the i7-4702MQ still holds relevance in legacy systems and budget-oriented upgrades where integrated graphics and efficiency are priorities.

The processor operates at a base frequency of 2.2 GHz, with a turbo boost up to 3.2 GHz, and is built on the Intel Haswell microarchitecture. It supports DDR3L-1333/1600 memory across two channels, delivering a maximum memory bandwidth of 25.6 GB/s. With a 65 W TDP and an FC-PGA946 socket, it is designed for laptops requiring a balance between performance and thermal management. The i7-4702MQ supports up to 32 GB of RAM and includes Intel’s HD Graphics 4600 GPU, which operates at a base frequency of 400 MHz and can burst up to 1150 MHz, supporting up to three displays and offering modest integrated graphics performance.

Key features include Intel’s AES-NI encryption, AVX2 vector instructions, and virtualization technologies such as VT-x and VT-d, making it suitable for business and professional applications. It also supports ECC memory, although this is typically limited to workstation-grade platforms. The CPU supports up to 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes and includes advanced power-saving features like Enhanced SpeedStep and Intel vPro for enterprise environments.

In benchmark tests, the Core i7-4702MQ achieves an overall score of 4877, placing it at #974 out of 2060 processors. Its single-core performance scores 4956, ranking #964, while its multicore score reaches 4758, placing it at #899. This indicates that while its single-threaded performance is relatively strong for its time, its multicore capabilities are slightly weaker, especially when compared to modern processors. It outperforms several recent CPUs in the single-core category, such as the Core i3-6098P and Core i5-4300M, but falls behind newer models like the Ryzen 7 3700U.

In the broader context of modern computing, the i7-4702MQ is no longer competitive with today's high-end processors, which can achieve over 8,000 in single-core and 12,000 in multicore performance. However, as of March 2026, it remains a viable option for users who prioritize cost-effective upgrades in older systems, particularly in environments where integrated graphics and moderate processing power are sufficient. Its combination of Hyper-Threading, AVX2 support, and vPro features makes it a durable choice for legacy business applications, though it is clearly outdated for gaming or content creation in 2026.
