Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE vs AMD GX-216HC

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE and the AMD GX-216HC and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE 2 core processor released in Q2/2020 with the AMD GX-216HC which has 2 CPU cores and was introduced in Q2/2014.

The Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE is a 2 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.20 GHz. The processor can compute 4 threads at the same time. The AMD GX-216HC clocks with 1.60 GHz, has 2 CPU cores and can calculate 2 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 128 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE, while the AMD GX-216HC supports a maximum of 16 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 8.6 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE has a TDP of 35 W. The TDP of the AMD GX-216HC is 10 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Pentium Gold G6400TE has 4.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of AMD GX-216HC is at 1.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 28 nm.
