Select one of the tested platforms based on which the calculation should be performed for the platform you are adding. For example, it is recommended to select Intel Core i3-6100 as similar platform for adding Intel Core i3-6300, since all parameters (architecture/production technology, model line, number of CPU cores) except frequency are the same while frequency differs insignificantly.

Added platforms are stored in cookies and remain on the list when you refresh or reopen the page. Starting November 2019 you will need to add the previously selected platforms once again, because compared to previous versions of the calculator, calculation algorithms have been improved. When opening calculator, the corresponding message is displayedThe list of platforms may change when switching the addition mode (i.e. simplified or advanced) depending on the mode used to add a platform.
