Core i3-2120 vs Pentium 4415U specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-2120 beats the Pentium 4415U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium 4415U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. The Pentium 4415U outputs less heat than Core i3-2120 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i3-2120 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
