Pentium G2020 vs Pentium G3220 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Pentium G3220 beats the Pentium G2020 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G2020 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G3220 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium G2020. The Pentium G3220 outputs less heat than Pentium G2020 thanks to a slightly 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. For instance, the Pentium G2020 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
