Core i5-3210M vs Pentium 4415U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Pentium 4415U beats the Core i5-3210M in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-3210M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. The Pentium 4415U outputs less heat than Core i5-3210M thanks to a significantly 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 i5-3210M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
