Pentium G645 vs Pentium G860 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G645 performs better than the Pentium G860. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium G860 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G860 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium G645. In terms of cache, the Pentium G645 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Pentium G860. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 G645 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
