Core i3-2350M Details

Launched in October 2011, the Intel Core i3-2350M is a mobile processor built on the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture, representing a significant step forward in integrated graphics and power efficiency for its time. With a base clock of 2.3 GHz and a TDP of 35 W, it was designed for mainstream laptops requiring balanced performance and thermal control. The processor features two physical cores and supports simultaneous multithreading (SMT), effectively enabling four threads, which enhances multitasking and responsiveness in everyday computing environments.

The Core i3-2350M operates on a 32 nm process and includes 3 MB of L3 cache, with 0.5 MB of L2 cache and 0.125 MiB of L1 cache per core. It supports dual-channel DDR3-1333 and DDR3-1066 memory, delivering a maximum memory bandwidth of 19.87 GiB/s. The integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics engine runs at up to 1.15 GHz, supports up to two displays, and provides sufficient performance for basic multimedia and light gaming. Despite its age, the HD 3000 GPU remains capable of handling 1080p video playback and older 3D titles.

In terms of performance, the Core i3-2350M achieves an Overall Score of 4266, ranking #1566 out of 2060 processors in the database. Its Singlecore Score stands at 4132, placing it #1646, while its Multicore Score of 4467 ranks it #1287. These results place it below modern processors but still competitive with some contemporary mobile CPUs from the same era, such as the Core i5-2300 and Core i3-3240. The processor excels in single-threaded workloads, though its multicore performance is modest by today’s standards.

The processor supports a range of modern features for its time, including Intel’s Enhanced SpeedStep Technology (EIST), Intel VT-x for hardware virtualization, and Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX), which improve performance in scientific and multimedia applications. It also includes support for Intel My WiFi Technology and Identity Protection Technology, enhancing connectivity and security. Despite being a decade-old design, the Core i3-2350M remains a reliable option for basic productivity tasks, web browsing, and media consumption in older systems.

As of March 2026, the Core i3-2350M is best suited for users maintaining legacy systems or requiring a low-power, cost-effective mobile CPU for non-demanding applications. While it lacks the power and efficiency of modern processors, its historical significance and compatibility with older platforms ensure its continued relevance in niche use cases.
