Core i5-4210U vs 3020e specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the 3020e beats the Core i5-4210U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4210U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-4210U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-4210U has a slightly higher clock speed than the 3020e.

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 i5-4210U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
