Intel Core i5-4200U vs Intel Pentium 6405U

Core i5-4200U vs Pentium 6405U specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Pentium 6405U beats the Core i5-4200U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4200U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. 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.

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 i5-4200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
