i5-4570 vs E3-1220 v3 specifications comparison
The graphs below compare the most important features of the E3-1220 v3 and Core i5-4570 CPUs. These characteristics, as well as an IPC [instructions per cycle] number, determine how well a processor performs. The "Operating frequency" graph uses dark color to represent base frequency, whereas lighter area is for additional 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. Although the L3 cache cache is usually larger than the On-chip L2 cache, it is always slower.
