Intel Core i3-7100U vs Intel Pentium G645

Core i3-7100U vs Pentium G645 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G645 performs better than the Core i3-7100U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-7100U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-7100U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G645 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-7100U. A Core i3-7100U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G645 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 i3-7100U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
