Intel Core i3-3110M vs Intel Core i3-3130M

Core i3-3110M vs Core i3-3130M specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-3110M is faster than the Core i3-3130M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-3130M 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 i3-3130M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-3110M. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i3-3110M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
