Core i3-2370M vs 3020e specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-2370M beats the 3020e in overall performance. Despite this, the 3020e has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-2370M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-2370M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the 3020e. The 3020e outputs less heat than Core i3-2370M 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 i3-2370M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
