Core i3-7100 vs N100 comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-7100 performs better than the N100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the N100 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the N100 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-7100. Indeed, the N100 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-7100. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-7100 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N100. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the N100 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-7100. The N100 also has significantly more L3 cache.
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 i3-7100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
