In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-11400T has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 3 3100. Indeed, the Core i5-11400T has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Ryzen 3 3100. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 3100. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 3 3100 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-11400T. Also, the Ryzen 3 3100 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-11400T outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 3100 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i5-11400T has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 3100. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 3100 has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Core i5-11400T.

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 Ryzen 3 3100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
