Core i5-3360M Details

Ranked #1060 of 2060 processors in overall performance, the Intel Core i5-3360M represents a capable mobile processor from the Ivy Bridge generation, launched in 2012. While it is now over a decade old, its performance still holds relevance in legacy systems and low-power applications. As of early 2026, the processor sits in the mid-tier of older mobile CPUs, offering a balance between power efficiency and computational capability. Its 22 nm manufacturing process and dual-core design with Hyper-Threading enable it to handle moderate workloads with reasonable efficiency. The 35 W TDP ensures low thermal output, making it suitable for thin and light laptops of its era.

The Core i5-3360M operates at a base frequency of 2.8 GHz and can boost up to 3.5 GHz under optimal conditions, thanks to Intel's Turbo Boost technology. It features a 2.861 MiB L3 cache, which helps improve data retrieval speeds, and supports dual-channel DDR3 memory up to 1600 MHz, delivering a maximum memory bandwidth of 25.6 GB/s. With a socket of FCBGA1023 and support for PCIe 3.0, the processor offers decent connectivity for its time. The inclusion of Intel's HD Graphics 4000, with a maximum frequency of 1.2 GHz and up to 2 GB of shared memory, allows for basic multimedia tasks and light gaming.

In benchmark testing, the Core i5-3360M achieves an Overall Score of 4756, a Singlecore Score of 4921, and a Multicore Score of 4509. These results place it above some older dual-core processors like the Core i5-4330M and Phenom II X4 910e but behind newer chips such as the Core i5-3380M and Core i5-3360S. Its single-core performance is particularly strong, ranking #994 in the overall list, indicating that it remains competitive in tasks that rely heavily on clock speed rather than core count. However, its multicore performance trails slightly behind, ranking #1209, which reflects the limitations of its two physical cores and aging architecture.

The processor supports a wide range of modern technologies for its time, including AVX, AVX2, AES-NI, and Intel Hyper-Threading, which enables four threads to be processed simultaneously. It also supports hardware virtualization through VT-x and VT-d, making it suitable for running virtual machines. Additionally, features like EIST (Enhanced SpeedStep) and TXT (Trusted Execution Technology) enhance power management and security. Despite being a decade-old design, the Core i5-3360M remains a viable option for light office use, web browsing, and multimedia playback in older laptops.

In the broader context of modern computing, the Core i5-3360M is significantly outpaced by today’s top-tier processors, such as the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX or the Core Ultra 9 285K, which deliver over twice the performance in both single- and multicore workloads. However, its efficiency and integrated graphics still make it a practical choice for legacy systems, educational institutions, or users seeking a low-cost upgrade. As of March 2026, it remains a testament to Intel’s mobile processing capabilities during the early 2010s, albeit a product of a bygone era in CPU evolution.
