Intel Core i5-7200U vs Intel Pentium G4400T

Core i5-7200U vs Pentium G4400T comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-7200U performs better than the Pentium G4400T. Despite this, the Pentium G4400T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-7200U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G4400T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7200U. A Core i5-7200U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G4400T CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i5-7200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
