Core i7-4930MX Details

As of March 2026, the Intel Core i7-4930MX stands as a relic from the early Haswell era, a mobile processor launched in April 2013. While long surpassed by modern CPUs in both performance and efficiency, it remains notable for its time as part of Intel's Core i7 Extreme lineup, targeting high-end mobile workstations and gaming laptops. Built on a 22 nm process and featuring the Haswell microarchitecture, the i7-4930MX was designed to deliver powerful performance within a 57 W TDP envelope, making it a significant step up from mainstream mobile offerings of its day.

The processor features four cores and eight threads, enabled by Intel's Hyper-Threading technology, which was a key differentiator in the mobile space at launch. With a base clock of 3.0 GHz and a turbo frequency of up to 3.9 GHz, it leveraged Intel's dynamic frequency scaling to handle demanding workloads efficiently. It supports dual-channel DDR3L memory up to 1600 MT/s and includes an integrated Intel HD 4600 graphics solution capable of driving up to three displays at a maximum frequency of 1.35 GHz. The chip also includes 7.629 MiB of L3 cache, with 0.061 MiB of L1 and 0.244 MiB of L2 cache per core, contributing to its strong performance in memory-intensive applications.

Despite its age, the i7-4930MX still holds a place in the benchmark rankings, scoring 5,199 in the overall Passmark test, placing it at #713 out of 2,060 processors. In single-core performance, it achieves a score of 5,431, ranking #606, indicating that its individual core performance was once competitive. However, its multicore score of 4,851, ranking #785, reflects the limitations of its four-core design in the face of modern multi-threaded workloads. It trails behind contemporary CPUs like the Core i5-7440EQ and Pentium Gold G7400 in multicore performance, while outperforming older mobile processors such as the Core i7-4850HQ.

The i7-4930MX supports a wide range of Intel technologies, including AVX2, AES-NI, and Intel vPro, enabling efficient encryption, virtualization, and data processing. It also features Intel's Enhanced SpeedStep Technology for power management and supports PCIe 3.0 for high-speed connectivity. While it lacks support for newer instruction sets like AVX-512, its feature set was robust for its time.

In today’s landscape, the Core i7-4930MX is best suited for legacy systems or as a reference point for understanding the evolution of mobile CPU design. Its performance is now considered outdated for modern gaming, content creation, or machine learning tasks, but it remains a testament to Intel’s early commitment to high-performance mobile computing.
