Core i3-6100 vs Athlon 3000G benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the Athlon 3000G beats the Core i3-6100 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i3-6100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-6100 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Athlon 3000G. The Athlon 3000G outputs less heat than Core i3-6100 thanks to a 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 Athlon 3000G has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-6100. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.
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 i3-6100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
