Core i3-1005G1 vs Core i5-2400 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Core i5-2400 beats the Core i3-1005G1 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-1005G1 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-2400 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-1005G1. Indeed, the Core i5-2400 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-1005G1. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-2400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-1005G1. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Core i3-1005G1 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-2400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-1005G1 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
