Intel Core i3-6100 vs Intel N95

Core i3-6100 vs N95 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the N95 performs better than the Core i3-6100. Despite this, the Core i3-6100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the N95 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-6100 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-6100 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N95. The info from our database shows that the N95 has more L2 cache than the Core i3-6100. The N95 also has significantly 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.
