Core i3-6100T vs Core i5-3320M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-3320M is faster than the Core i3-6100T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-6100T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-6100T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-3320M. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-6100T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
