Intel Core i3-8145U vs Intel N100

Core i3-8145U vs N100 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-8145U performs better than the N100. Despite this, the N100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the N100 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-8145U. Indeed, the N100 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-8145U. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-8145U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N100. In terms of cache, the N100 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i3-8145U. The N100 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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. Indeed, the Core i3-8145U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
