Core i5-7400T vs Pentium Gold G6405 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium Gold G6405 is faster than the Core i5-7400T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7400T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-7400T has significantly more cores than the Pentium Gold G6405. Indeed, the Core i5-7400T has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium Gold G6405. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium Gold G6405 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7400T. A Core i5-7400T CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium Gold G6405 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. For instance, the Core i5-7400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
