I'm considering that processor and I'm interested to see where it would stack up against other processors in the benchmark list.

Thanks!

Protip - the i3-8100 is pretty much identical to any 6000 or 7000-series desktop i5 processor save for a slight difference in clockrate and the i5's having turbo while the i3's don't (though any overclocked i5 will have turbo deactivated).

The actual performance-per-GHz is identical and they're all 4core/4thread parts.

That's what I thought but the results in the data base are kind of funny. I see i5-6600 and i5-6600K, both clocked at 3.5GHz scoring 377 and 386, respectively. Close enough. However, there is a G4560, also clocked at 3.5GHz but scoring 329. I don't understand why the G4560 would be so much better so I thought having actual results from i3-8100 would be so much better.

The good thing about this processor is how cheap it is compared to i5-75XXx with similar specs.

I believe that submission was a mistake as the screenshot for it links to the example screenshot that I provided for that text field (which is simply my own score for my G3258 at 4.6GHz).

There are probably plenty of additional erroneous reports. I also see two G4600's, one at 334 and another at 411; night and day. Now I really have no clue what to expect from a Skylake or later Intel CPU running in the vicinity of 3.5GHz.

If I sort the list by CPU clock and look at all the Intel processors from 7th gen and newer between 3.4 and 3.6GHz, the scores run the gamut between 329 and 421, with the former being 28% faster than the latter. That is probably an unrealistic range. The best scores of 329 and 341 are held by a G4560 (3.5GHz) and a G4600 (3.6GHz), respectively, which may well be in error, while suspiciously, the two worst scores of 421 and 411 also belong to a G4500 (3.5GHz) and a G4600 (3.6GHz). It's a head-scratcher.

I'll have to assume that the real capability of those processors at 3.5GHz is in the vicinity of 390 points.
What do you think?

I'm not too hung up on it. In the end I'll just get the best I am willing to pay for but this is fun to ponder about.
