The Core i3-3220 failed our Crysis 2 benchmark, and Dirt Showdown gave us an average of 16fps when its graphics settings were set to low with no anti-aliasing and a resolution of 1,280x720. We had no problem when running productivity applications or web browsing, but it isn’t suited to playing modern 3D games. ![]() The Core i3-3220 has Intel HD Graphics 2500 on-chip graphics, which runs at a clock frequency of 650MHz. The fact that the Core i3-3220 has two cores partially explains its middling performance. Our reference CPU, which scores 100, has four cores. It scored 56 in the video-editing and multitasking benchmarks, and an impressive 76 in our image-editing benchmark. The Core i3-3220 isn’t the most exciting processor, and its benchmark results back this up, with the chip scoring 60 overall. To test the Core i3-3220, we fitted it to an Asus P8Z77-V LX motherboard with 4GB of RAM and connected a monitor to the board’s HDMI port. It does have Hyper-Threading, so each physical core runs as two logical cores, which should increase multitasking performance. ![]() The Core i3-3220 doesn’t have a K suffix, which means you can’t easily overclock it, and it doesn’t have Turbo Boost, which would overclock it automatically and safely within certain thermal conditions. ![]()
