Intel Core i3-3110M vs Intel Pentium G3220

Core i3-3110M vs Pentium G3220 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium G3220 is faster than the Core i3-3110M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-3110M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-3110M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3220 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-3110M. A Core i3-3110M CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3220 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-3110M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
