i3 Pocket Power.

Solid CPU so far. Liking the new speeds, and the extra threads! Pretty much a 7th gen i7 But newer! lol. Without the expensive price tag too. Definitely recommend for a budget/mid build or equivalent.

Intel Core i3-10100 Review

As the entry-level Core chip in Intel's 10th Generation lineup of desktop CPUs, the Core i3-10100 ($122) finds itself parachuting into a marketplace battlefield. AMD's Ryzen 3 3300X ($120) has been busy swatting members of Intel's current lineup of gaming-focused CPUs out of the sky on value, as well as in performance with lightly threaded games. So, how does the Core i3-10100 do in the face of such firepower? It takes cover...mostly. The Core i3-10100 is sometimes slower than its predecessor, the Core i3-9100, and the 3300X has proven itself to be a four-core CPU that punches above its weight in popular games, making it a hot pick for cost-conscious PC builders and buyers. Unless you need onboard graphics or be on Intel's LGA 1200 socket, the Ryzen 3 3300X is categorically a better choice (and if you do need onboard graphics, the $99 AMD Ryzen 3 3200G might finish the fight). Otherwise, in those limited scenarios, the Core i3-10100 fulfills its role within Intel's stack dutifull...

Intel's entry-level Core i3-10100 CPU requires an all-new motherboard platform to install, and our sample chip's performance numbers are far enough below AMD's competing Ryzens to stifle most of its four-core appeal.

Runs cool; Has integrated graphics, versus non-G-series AMD Ryzens; Here in early 2021, you can buy one without a search party

Comparatively slow results for its price range; Intel UHD Graphics 630 showing its age; Requires a platform upgrade to LGA 1200
