Intel Core i3-2370M vs Intel Core i3-4020Y

Core i3-2370M vs Core i3-4020Y specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-2370M beats the Core i3-4020Y in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4020Y 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-2370M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4020Y. The Core i3-4020Y 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.

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 i3-2370M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
