Pentium Gold G6400 vs N150 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium Gold G6400 is faster than the N150. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the N150 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the N150 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Pentium Gold G6400 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium Gold G6400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N150. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the N150 has significantly more L2 cache than the Pentium Gold G6400. The N150 also has significantly more 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. Indeed, the Pentium Gold G6400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
