Intel Core i5-4690
Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core i5-4690 is based on the proven Haswell S architecture. This processor, manufactured in the 22-nm process, was once a solid choice for many users. It provided reliable performance for everyday tasks and simple applications. Many users greatly appreciated its stability and durability over the years.

The integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600 easily enables simple graphics tasks. Even today, it represents a usable option for office systems or media centers. It is still well-suited for surfing the web or playing media. The 6 MB Level 3 Cache contributes to an overall smooth user experience. With PCIe 3.0, it offers sufficient connectivity for many older expansion cards.

The maximum memory bandwidth is 26 GB/s. Even though newer CPUs are faster, the i5-4690 remains a cost-effective solution. It is ideal for systems that do not require peak performance. We often see it in reliable secondary computers or older office configurations.
