Core i5-4690 vs Pentium Gold 7505 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium Gold 7505 is faster than the Core i5-4690. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4690 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-4690 has significantly more cores than the Pentium Gold 7505. Indeed, the Core i5-4690 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium Gold 7505. But they both have the same number of threads. The Pentium Gold 7505 outputs less heat than Core i5-4690 thanks to a 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. For instance, the Core i5-4690 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
