Intel Pentium 3825U vs Intel Core 2 Duo E8200

Pentium 3825U vs Core 2 Duo E8200 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Pentium 3825U beats the Core 2 Duo E8200 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Pentium 3825U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 3825U. A Pentium 3825U CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8200 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Pentium 3825U

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 Pentium 3825U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
