Core i3-4000M vs Pentium G3220T comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-4000M is faster than the Pentium G3220T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G3220T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4000M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3220T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4000M. The Pentium G3220T outputs less heat than Core i3-4000M thanks to a slightly 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. Indeed, the Core i3-4000M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
