Pentium G3460 vs Athlon X4 760K benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Athlon X4 760K is faster than the Pentium G3460. Despite this, the Pentium G3460 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Athlon X4 760K has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Athlon X4 760K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Pentium G3460.

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 G3460 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
