Intel 8th Generation Core i3-8100 Processor

The improvement of Coffee Lake architecture happens mostly for the i3 models. Previously hyper-threaded cores were used in i3 chips but presently four physical cores were used that perform closer to Kaby Lake-based Core i5. This improvement is required to compete with the AMD's Ryzen 3 1300X and 1200 processors.
