Pentium G4520 vs Xeon E5-440 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-440 is faster than the Pentium G4520. Despite this, the Pentium G4520 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-440 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Pentium G4520 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Pentium G4520. With our hardware info, we find that the Pentium G4520 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-440. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon E5-440 has significantly more L2 cache than the Pentium G4520

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 G4520 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
