Core i5-4200H vs Pentium G4400 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4200H is faster than the Pentium G4400. Despite this, the Pentium G4400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-4200H has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G4400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4200H. A Core i5-4200H CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4400 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i5-4200H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
