Intel Core i3-530 vs Intel N150

Core i3-530 vs N150 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the N150 is faster than the Core i3-530. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-530 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the N150 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-530 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-530 has a significantly higher clock speed than the N150.

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 i3-530 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
