Intel Core i7-1065G7 vs Intel Pentium Gold G6405

Core i7-1065G7 vs Pentium Gold G6405 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-1065G7 performs better than the Pentium Gold G6405. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium Gold G6405 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-1065G7 has significantly more cores than the Pentium Gold G6405. Indeed, the Core i7-1065G7 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium Gold G6405. It also has more threads than the Pentium Gold G6405. Our comparison shows that the Pentium Gold G6405 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1065G7. A Core i7-1065G7 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.

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 i7-1065G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
