Intel Core i5-4200H vs Intel Pentium G3460

Core i5-4200H vs Pentium G3460 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-4200H beats the Pentium G3460 in overall performance. Despite this, the Pentium G3460 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i5-4200H has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium G3460 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-4200H. A Core i5-4200H CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3460 CPU because of its slightly 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. Indeed, the Core i5-4200H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
