Core i3-2328M vs Pentium 4417U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium 4417U is faster than the Core i3-2328M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-2328M in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. The Pentium 4417U outputs less heat than Core i3-2328M thanks to a 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.
