About the Intel Core i3-2330M CPU

The Intel Core i3-2330M is an end-of-life 2-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2011. It is part of Intel's Core i3 lineup, which is based on the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture. The i3-2330M is compatible with Intel BGA 1023 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 32 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core i3-2330M supports DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i3-2330M has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 3 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i3-2330M features 2 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.2 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Core i3-2330M includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD 3000. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The Core i3-2330M has the 536th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 7.53% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the Intel Core i9-10885H CPU

The Intel Core i9-10885H is an end-of-life 8-core (16-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2020 with a suggested retail price of $556. It is part of Intel's Core i9 lineup, which is based on the Comet Lake-H microarchitecture. The i9-10885H is compatible with Intel BGA 1440 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the UHD Graphics 630 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core i9-10885H supports DDR4 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i9-10885H has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 16 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i9-10885H features 8 total cores which can process 16 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.4 GHz, and it can boost up to 5.3 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Core i9-10885H includes an integrated graphics solution called UHD Graphics 630. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The Core i9-10885H has the 148th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 38.63% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 14,291 score and $556 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 25.7.
