Intel Core i5-7200U vs Intel Pentium G3460

Core i5-7200U vs Pentium G3460 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G3460 performs better than the Core i5-7200U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7200U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-7200U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3460 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7200U. A Core i5-7200U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3460 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 i5-7200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
