Core i5-4210U vs Pentium G4400T comparison

In our benchmarks, the Pentium G4400T beats the Core i5-4210U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4210U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-4210U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4400T has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4210U. A Core i5-4210U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4400T CPU because of its 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. Indeed, the Core i5-4210U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
