Intel Core i5-2410M vs Intel Core i5 M 560

Core i5-2410M vs Core i5 M 560 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-2410M is faster than the Core i5 M 560. Despite this, the Core i5 M 560 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5 M 560 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-2410M. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i5-2410M has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5 M 560

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. Indeed, the Core i5-2410M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
