[SOLVED] Core i3 second generation VS Pentium G2020

[ak195]

I want to make sure that does G2020 processor really gives more performance in games and graphics as compared to core-i3 second generation processors?

(G2030 instead of the G2020, but it's close enough for comparison)

Essentially, the improvements in the Pentium chip (being a 3rd-gen "Ivy Bridge" processor, versus the i3's 2nd-gen "Sandy Bridge" specs) is offset by the Pentium's lack of hyperthreading. Hence, their benchmarks are nearly identical, with the Pentium winning a few & the core i3 winning a few.

does hyperthreading is needed for latest games like assassin's creed unity, farcry4 etc. etc.
