Intel Core i3-4000M vs Intel Pentium N4200

Core i3-4000M vs Pentium N4200 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-4000M is faster than the Pentium N4200. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium N4200 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Pentium N4200 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-4000M. Indeed, the Pentium N4200 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-4000M. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-4000M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium N4200. The Pentium N4200 outputs less heat than Core i3-4000M 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 i3-4000M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
