Intel Pentium Gold G6405 vs Intel Celeron G6900

Pentium Gold G6405 vs Celeron G6900 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron G6900 is faster than the Pentium Gold G6405. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium Gold G6405 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Pentium Gold G6405 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Pentium Gold G6405 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron G6900. The Celeron G6900 outputs less heat than Pentium Gold G6405 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. Indeed, the Pentium Gold G6405 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
