Pentium G3250 vs Core m3-7Y30 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core m3-7Y30 is faster than the Pentium G3250. Despite this, the Pentium G3250 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core m3-7Y30 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G3250 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core m3-7Y30. The Core m3-7Y30 outputs less heat than Pentium G3250 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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