Core i3-4020Y vs N100 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the N100 is faster than the Core i3-4020Y. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4020Y in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the N100 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-4020Y. Indeed, the N100 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-4020Y. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-4020Y has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N100.

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.
