Intel Core i5-9500T vs Intel Core i3-9100F

Core i5-9500T vs Core i3-9100F benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-9500T is faster than the Core i3-9100F. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-9100F in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-9500T has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Core i3-9100F has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-9100F. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-9100F has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9500T. Also, the Core i3-9100F has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-9500T CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-9100F 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. For instance, the Core i5-9500T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
