Intel Core i3-4330 vs Intel Pentium G4520

Core i3-4330 vs Pentium G4520 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G4520 performs better than the Core i3-4330. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4330 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i3-4330 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G4520 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4330. The Pentium G4520 outputs less heat than Core i3-4330 thanks to a slightly 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 i3-4330 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
