Core i3-8100T vs Core i7-3632QM comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-8100T beats the Core i7-3632QM in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3632QM in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-3632QM has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-8100T has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-3632QM. 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.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i3-8100T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
