Intel Core i3-4000M vs Intel Core 2 Duo E7500

Core i3-4000M vs Core 2 Duo E7500 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Duo E7500 beats the Core i3-4000M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4000M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4000M has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core 2 Duo E7500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i3-4000M. A Core i3-4000M CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E7500 CPU because of its 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 i3-4000M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
