Core i3-5005U vs Core 2 Duo E8600 benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Duo E8600 beats the Core i3-5005U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-5005U in all gaming tests too.
Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-5005U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8600 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-5005U. A Core i3-5005U CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8600 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-5005U
The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i3-5005U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
