Core i5-3337U vs Pentium G2030 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-3337U performs better than the Pentium G2030. Despite this, the Pentium G2030 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-3337U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G2030 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-3337U. A Core i5-3337U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G2030 CPU because of its 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 i5-3337U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
