A6-3670 vs Pentium G2120 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the A6-3670 beats the Pentium G2120 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G2120 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the A6-3670 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Pentium G2120 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Pentium G2120. The Pentium G2120 outputs less heat than A6-3670 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the A6-3670 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
