Core i5-3320M vs Core i5-4200H specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4200H performs better than the Core i5-3320M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-3320M 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 i5-4200H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-3320M. Also, the Core i5-4200H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-3320M CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4200H CPU because of its 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. Indeed, the Core i5-3320M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
