Core i5-6200U vs Core i5-3320M benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-6200U performs better than the Core i5-3320M. Despite this, the Core i5-3320M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-3320M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6200U. Also, the Core i5-3320M has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-6200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-3320M CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 i5-6200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
