Core i3-4010U vs Pentium G3220T specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G3220T performs better than the Core i3-4010U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4010U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-4010U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3220T has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4010U. A Core i3-4010U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3220T 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 i3-4010U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
