Pentium G2030 vs Core i5 M 560 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G2030 performs better than the Core i5 M 560. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5 M 560 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5 M 560 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium G2030 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5 M 560.

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 Pentium G2030 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
