Core i5-7200U vs N100 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-7200U beats the N100 in overall performance. Despite this, the N100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the N100 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i5-7200U has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-7200U has a significantly higher clock speed than the N100.

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 i5-7200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
