Pentium 3825U vs Core m3-6Y30 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium 3825U is faster than the Core m3-6Y30. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core m3-6Y30 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium 3825U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core m3-6Y30. The Core m3-6Y30 outputs less heat than Pentium 3825U thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Core m3-6Y30 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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