Core i5-2410M vs Core i3-4330TE comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-4330TE beats the Core i5-2410M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-2410M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-4330TE has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-2410M. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Core i3-4330TE also has slightly 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. Indeed, the Core i5-2410M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
