Intel Pentium G3250 vs Intel Core i7 M 620

Pentium G3250 vs Core i7 M 620 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Pentium G3250 beats the Core i7 M 620 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7 M 620 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7 M 620 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3250 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7 M 620.

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 G3250 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
