Core i5-2400 vs Core i5-3350P comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-2400 beats the Core i5-3350P in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-3350P has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. According to our data, the Core i5-2400 and Core i5-3350P have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Core i5-2400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-3350P outputs less heat than Core i5-2400 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-2400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
