Intel Core i3-9100T vs Intel Pentium Gold G6405

Core i3-9100T vs Pentium Gold G6405 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Pentium Gold G6405 beats the Core i3-9100T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-9100T in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i3-9100T has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Pentium Gold G6405 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium Gold G6405 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-9100T. A Core i3-9100T CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium Gold G6405 CPU because of its 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. For instance, the Core i3-9100T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
