Core i3-4370 vs Pentium Gold G6405 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-4370 performs better than the Pentium Gold G6405. Despite this, the Pentium Gold G6405 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium Gold G6405 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4370. A Core i3-4370 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.

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 i3-4370 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
