Intel Core i3-4340 vs Intel Pentium Gold G6405

Core i3-4340 vs Pentium Gold G6405 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium Gold G6405 is faster than the Core i3-4340. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4340 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium Gold G6405 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-4340. A Core i3-4340 CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium Gold G6405 CPU because of its slightly 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 i3-4340 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
