Core i3-4020Y vs Core 2 Duo T7700 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Duo T7700 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.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4020Y has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core 2 Duo T7700 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4020Y. A Core i3-4020Y CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo T7700 CPU because of its 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 i3-4020Y has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
