Core i3-2130 vs Core i3-4160 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Core i3-4160 beats the Core i3-2130 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-2130 in all gaming tests too.
Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-4160 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-2130. The Core i3-4160 outputs less heat than Core i3-2130 thanks to a slightly 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 i3-2130 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
