Core i5-3317U vs Core i5-3337U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-3337U beats the Core i5-3317U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3317U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-3337U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-3317U. Also, the Core i5-3337U has a slightly higher turbo speed. 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.

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. Indeed, the Core i5-3317U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
