Intel Atom C3308 vs Intel Core i3-380UM

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Atom C3308 and the Intel Core i3-380UM and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Atom C3308 2 core processor released in Q3/2017 with the Intel Core i3-380UM which has 2 CPU cores and was introduced in Q4/2010.

The Intel Atom C3308 is a 2 core processor with a clock frequency of 1.60 GHz (2.10 GHz). The processor can compute 2 threads at the same time. The Intel Core i3-380UM clocks with 1.33 GHz, has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 4 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 128 GB of memory in a maximum of 1 memory channels is supported by the Intel Atom C3308, while the Intel Core i3-380UM supports a maximum of 8 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 12.8 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Atom C3308 has a TDP of 9.5 W. The TDP of the Intel Core i3-380UM is 18 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Atom C3308 has 4.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of Intel Core i3-380UM is at 3.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 32 nm.
