Intel Core i3-6157U vs Intel Core i3-6100H: comparison

Comparison of Intel Core i3-6157U and Intel Core i3-6100H: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Core i3-6157U has a lower TDP (28 W vs 35 W) and a higher maximum integrated graphics clock (1 GHz vs 900 MHz).

At the same time, Intel Core i3-6100H has a higher base clock (2.7 GHz vs 2.4 GHz) and a higher maximum memory size (64 GB vs 32 GB).

Both processors match on: core count (2), thread count (4), L3 cache (3 MB), process node (14 nm), memory channels (2), PCIe version (3).

These are specification values: they show differences between the models but do not determine a performance winner. For a specific workload, rely on independent benchmarks.
