Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core i5-4690S is a processor based on the Haswell S architecture. It was manufactured using the advanced 22-nanometer process. This, at the time, innovative manufacturing enabled remarkable energy efficiency for its class. With its four cores, it offers solid computing power for everyday applications.

The integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600 graphics card is particularly practical. It can easily handle basic multimedia tasks or use office applications. Another positive feature is the 6 MB Level 3 cache. This contributes to fast data access and improves system performance. For its time, the Intel Core i5-4690S offered a balanced mix of capabilities and cost-effectiveness.

Even today, it is a reliable choice for systems with moderate demands. We have often found that these processors reliably perform their service for years. Support for PCIe 3.0 also ensures good compatibility with various expansion cards. Its maximum memory bandwidth of 26 GB per second was quite respectable at the time.

It stands for the longevity of Intel technology of that era.
