Core i5-4300M vs N100 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4300M is faster than the N100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the N100 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the N100 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i5-4300M has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4300M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N100.

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 i5-4300M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
