Core i3-4005U vs Pentium 2020M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium 2020M is faster than the Core i3-4005U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4005U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-4005U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium 2020M has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-4005U. A Core i3-4005U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium 2020M CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i3-4005U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
