Core i3-1115G4 vs Pentium G4600 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-1115G4 performs better than the Pentium G4600. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G4600 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4600 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-1115G4. A Core i3-1115G4 CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4600 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i3-1115G4 has significantly more L2 cache than the Pentium G4600. The Core i3-1115G4 also has significantly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i3-1115G4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
