Core i3-9100T vs FX-6300 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the FX-6300 is faster than the Core i3-9100T. Despite this, the Core i3-9100T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i3-9100T has slightly more cores than the FX-6300. Indeed, the Core i3-9100T has 4 cores compared to 3 cores found in the FX-6300. Despite this, the FX-6300 has more threads than the Core i3-9100T. With our hardware info, we find that the FX-6300 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-9100T. Also, the FX-6300 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-9100T CPU outputs less heat than a FX-6300 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i3-9100T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
