CPU Comparison
Above you can see the CPU options and the CineBench and GeekBenck test scores for both laptops, which
gives an idea about what kind of performance difference you may experience between the
Dell Latitude 7430 and Dell Latitude 9430.
GPU Comparison
GPU is as critical as the CPU for graphic heavy applications and the table above gives a picture of how
the two GPU compares.
FLOPS is a measure of a GPU's performance based on the number of floating-point arithmetic calculations
that the processor can perform within a second.
Dell Latitude 7430 has a FLOPS value of 1.41 TFLOPS whereas the Dell Latitude 9430 has a FLOPS value of 1.41 TFLOPS.
RAM Comparison
The
Latitude 9430 provides a larger RAM capacity of
16 GB, which allows for smoother multitasking and improved performance in memory-demanding tasks compared to the
Latitude 7430's RAM capacity of
8 GB.
In addition to RAM capacity, the type of RAM can significantly impact performance, with newer RAM types
often offering higher speeds compared to others. Therefore, selecting RAM types with the latest DDR
number can be a suitable choice based on your requirements.
BATTERY
Moreover, the
Latitude 7430 boasts a larger battery capacity of
41 Wh, offering extended usage time compared to the
Latitude 9430's 40 Wh.
StorageBoth laptops, the Latitude 7430 and the Latitude 9430, have similar storage capacities of 256 GB, allowing for ample space to store files and applications.

If your budget allows, we recommend opting for the largest possible disk size, considering the potential
increase in storage capacity needs in the future. However, please keep in mind the question 'What will the
laptop be used for?' when making this decision.
Of course, you can later upgrade the hard disk capacity by getting a larger disk. However, if your laptop
has only one disk slot, it may not be as straightforward as a RAM upgrade, where you simply add or replace a
module, as moving or cloning files to a new disk may be necessary.
