Core i3-2328M vs Core 2 Duo E8400 specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Core i3-2328M beats the Core 2 Duo E8400 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core 2 Duo E8400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i3-2328M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-2328M. A Core i3-2328M CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 i3-2328M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
