Core i3-9100F vs Core 7 150U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core 7 150U is faster than the Core i3-9100F. Despite this, the Core i3-9100F has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core 7 150U has significantly more cores with 10 cores whereas the Core i3-9100F has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-9100F. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-9100F has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core 7 150U. Despite this, the Core 7 150U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The info from our database shows that the Core 7 150U has more L2 cache than the Core i3-9100F. The Core 7 150U 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. For instance, the Core i3-9100F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
