the intel quad core pentium N4200 was good, the processor not very strong but it's good to use!

The main reason is Fps, for real the fps drops are highere in i3 (M 380) but in pentium (N4200) it manage it well to keep constant!

Great performance for small laptops. It really shines, and it doesn´t need active coolling.

Salesman told me the the max CPU speed was 1.1 GHz. He didn't know I saw the burst possibility to 2.5 GHz and this was good for negotiation ;-) . I was taking classes at that point and at not much money at the time. I still don't regret buying it and I still use it from time to time and it keeps amazing me. Compared to the Core i3 (6600) the N4200 had a score of 8.0 and the i3 a score of 8.1. Difference was the price.

If you look at the specs at a glance it looks like it's gonna be something crazy but a computer with that processor is gonna be useless in 3 years tops.

It works ok for modelling on a tiny level in blender and running simple scenes in unity, but not much else.

Just what need to do to have same performance as 4200u is enable max performance powerplan ant cpu clock rate bottom line will stick on 2.1 Ghz on iddle up to 2.44 Ghz on burst (all 4 cores)

 Best User Rated
Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit?
Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation.
Why don’t PC brands endorse UserBenchmark?
Brands make boatloads on flagships like the 4090 and 14900KS. We help users get similar real-world performance for less money.
Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark?
We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products.
Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews?
The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands.
Why is UserBenchmark the gold standard for users?
Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 13 years publishing real-world data for users.
