Intel Core i5-760 vs Intel Core i3-4340

Core i5-760 vs Core i3-4340 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-760 beats the Core i3-4340 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i3-4340 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-760 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-4340 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-4340 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-760. The Core i3-4340 outputs less heat than Core i5-760 thanks to a 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. For instance, the Core i5-760 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
