Intel Core i5-2400S vs Intel Pentium 6805

Core i5-2400S vs Pentium 6805 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium 6805 performs better than the Core i5-2400S. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-2400S in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-2400S has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Pentium 6805 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-2400S has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 6805. Also, the Core i5-2400S has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Pentium 6805 outputs less heat than Core i5-2400S thanks to a 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. For instance, the Core i5-2400S has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
