Intel Core i5-5200U vs Intel Core i3-3130M

Core i5-5200U vs Core i3-3130M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-5200U is faster than the Core i3-3130M. Despite this, the Core i3-3130M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-3130M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5200U. A Core i5-5200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-3130M CPU because of its significantly 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 i5-5200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
