Core i3-4370 vs Core i3-6098P comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-6098P performs better than the Core i3-4370. Despite this, the Core i3-4370 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-4370 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-6098P. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i3-4370 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
