Intel Core i5-4310M vs Intel N100

Core i5-4310M vs N100 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-4310M performs better than the N100. Despite this, the N100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the N100 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i5-4310M that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4310M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N100.

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 i5-4310M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
