Core i3-8145U vs Core i5-760 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-760 is faster than the Core i3-8145U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8145U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-760 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-8145U. Indeed, the Core i5-760 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-8145U. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-760 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-8145U. Despite this, the Core i3-8145U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-8145U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-760 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core i5-760 has more L2 cache than the Core i3-8145U. The Core i5-760 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 i3-8145U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
