Pentium G3240 vs 3020e specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G3240 performs better than the 3020e. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the 3020e in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G3240 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the 3020e.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Pentium G3240 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
