Intel Core i3-6100 vs Intel Core i3-4130

Core i3-6100 vs Core i3-4130 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-6100 is faster than the Core i3-4130. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4130 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-6100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4130. A Core i3-6100 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-4130 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Core i3-6100 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 i3-6100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
