Intel Core i5-4440 vs Intel Pentium G4600

Core i5-4440 vs Pentium G4600 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4440 is faster than the Pentium G4600. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G4600 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-4440 has significantly more cores than the Pentium G4600. Indeed, the Core i5-4440 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium G4600. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G4600 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4440. The Pentium G4600 outputs less heat than Core i5-4440 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Core i5-4440 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
