Intel Core i5-4460 vs Intel Pentium Gold G6405

Core i5-4460 vs Pentium Gold G6405 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4460 is faster than the Pentium Gold G6405. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium Gold G6405 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-4460 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Pentium Gold G6405 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium Gold G6405 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-4460. The Pentium Gold G6405 outputs less heat than Core i5-4460 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 i5-4460 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
