Core i3-7350K vs Pentium Gold 7505 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-7350K performs better than the Pentium Gold 7505. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium Gold 7505 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. The Pentium Gold 7505 outputs less heat than Core i3-7350K thanks to a significantly 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 i3-7350K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
