Core i5-3330 vs Pentium Gold 7505 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-3330 performs better than the Pentium Gold 7505. Despite this, the Pentium Gold 7505 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-3330 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Pentium Gold 7505 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. The Pentium Gold 7505 outputs less heat than Core i5-3330 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 i5-3330 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
