Intel Core i5-5300U vs Intel Pentium G3220T

Core i5-5300U vs Pentium G3220T comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-5300U is faster than the Pentium G3220T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G3220T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-5300U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3220T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5300U. A Core i5-5300U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3220T CPU because of its 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. Indeed, the Core i5-5300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
