Intel Core i5-4310M vs Intel Pentium G4520

Core i5-4310M vs Pentium G4520 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium G4520 is faster than the Core i5-4310M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4310M in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i5-4310M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4520 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4310M. A Core i5-4310M CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4520 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 i5-4310M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
