Intel Core i7-4500U vs Intel Pentium G645

Core i7-4500U vs Pentium G645 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4500U is faster than the Pentium G645. Despite this, the Pentium G645 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-4500U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium G645 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-4500U. A Core i7-4500U CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G645 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 i7-4500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
