Intel Core i5-3210M vs Intel Pentium G3220T

Core i5-3210M vs Pentium G3220T specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Pentium G3220T beats the Core i5-3210M in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-3210M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-3210M has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G3220T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-3210M. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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.
