Intel Core i3-9100 vs Intel Core i5-1035G4

Core i3-9100 vs Core i5-1035G4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-1035G4 is faster than the Core i3-9100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-9100 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-1035G4 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-9100 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-1035G4. Also, the Core i3-9100 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-1035G4 outputs less heat than Core i3-9100 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and 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. For instance, the Core i3-9100 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
