Core i5-4300U vs 3020e specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4300U is faster than the 3020e. Despite this, the 3020e has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-4300U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4300U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the 3020e. In terms of cache, the 3020e has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-4300U. The 3020e also has slightly more L3 cache.

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