Intel Core i5-6500T vs Intel Pentium G4400T

Core i5-6500T vs Pentium G4400T benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-6500T beats the Pentium G4400T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G4400T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-6500T has significantly more cores than the Pentium G4400T. Indeed, the Core i5-6500T has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium G4400T. It also has more threads than the Pentium G4400T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4400T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6500T. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i5-6500T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
