Intel Core i3-10110U vs Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600

Core i3-10110U vs Core 2 Quad Q6600 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-10110U beats the Core 2 Quad Q6600 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Quad Q6600 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core 2 Quad Q6600 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-10110U has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core 2 Quad Q6600 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-10110U. A Core i3-10110U CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core 2 Quad Q6600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-10110U

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i3-10110U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
