Pentium N3710 vs Core m3-6Y30 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium N3710 performs better than the Core m3-6Y30. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core m3-6Y30 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Pentium N3710 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core m3-6Y30 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium N3710 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core m3-6Y30. The Core m3-6Y30 outputs less heat than Pentium N3710 thanks to a slightly 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 Pentium N3710 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
