Core i3-3110M vs Pentium Silver N5030 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Pentium Silver N5030 beats the Core i3-3110M in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i3-3110M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Pentium Silver N5030 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-3110M that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-3110M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium Silver N5030. The Pentium Silver N5030 outputs less heat than Core i3-3110M thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-3110M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
