Intel Pentium Gold 6405U vs Intel Pentium Gold 4415Y: comparison

Comparison of Intel Pentium Gold 6405U and Intel Pentium Gold 4415Y: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Pentium Gold 6405U has a higher base clock (2.4 GHz vs 1.6 GHz), a higher maximum memory size (64 GB vs 16 GB) and a higher maximum integrated graphics clock (950 MHz vs 850 MHz).

At the same time, Intel Pentium Gold 4415Y has a lower TDP (6 W vs 15 W) and a newer PCIe version (3 vs 2).

Both processors match on: core count (2), thread count (4), process node (14 nm), memory channels (2).

These are specification values: they show differences between the models but do not determine a performance winner. For a specific workload, rely on independent benchmarks.
