Intel Core i3-4170 vs Intel N95

Core i3-4170 vs N95 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the N95 is faster than the Core i3-4170. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4170 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the N95 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-4170 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-4170 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N95.

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 i3-4170 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
