Pentium G4400 vs Athlon II X4 651 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Athlon II X4 651 performs better than the Pentium G4400. Despite this, the Pentium G4400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Athlon II X4 651 has significantly more cores than the Pentium G4400. Indeed, the Athlon II X4 651 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium G4400. It also has more threads than the Pentium G4400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium G4400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Athlon II X4 651. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Athlon II X4 651 has significantly more L2 cache than the Pentium G4400

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 G4400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
