Core i3-9100T vs FX-8370E benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the FX-8370E performs better than the Core i3-9100T. Despite this, the Core i3-9100T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the FX-8370E has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-8370E has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-9100T. Also, the FX-8370E has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-9100T CPU outputs less heat than a FX-8370E CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Core i3-9100T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
