Core i5-5200U vs Pentium G4600 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Pentium G4600 beats the Core i5-5200U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-5200U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4600 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5200U. A Core i5-5200U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4600 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Pentium G4600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-5200U. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.
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 i5-5200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
