Intel Pentium 6405U vs Intel Core m3-7Y30

Pentium 6405U vs Core m3-7Y30 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core m3-7Y30 beats the Pentium 6405U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium 6405U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. The Core m3-7Y30 outputs less heat than Pentium 6405U thanks to a 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 Pentium 6405U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
