Core i3-6100T vs Core i7-4710HQ benchmarks
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4710HQ 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.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-4710HQ has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-6100T that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-6100T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-6100T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4710HQ. A Core i3-6100T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4710HQ CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. 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.
