Intel Core i5-9400F vs Intel Pentium Gold G5400

Core i5-9400F vs Pentium Gold G5400 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-9400F is faster than the Pentium Gold G5400. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium Gold G5400 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-9400F has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Pentium Gold G5400 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Pentium Gold G5400. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium Gold G5400 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-9400F. The Pentium Gold G5400 outputs less heat than Core i5-9400F thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core i5-9400F has more L2 cache than the Pentium Gold G5400. The Core i5-9400F also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 i5-9400F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
