Intel Pentium 3805U vs Intel Pentium 3558U: comparison

Comparison of Intel Pentium 3805U and Intel Pentium 3558U: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Pentium 3805U has a higher base clock (1.9 GHz vs 1.7 GHz) and a finer process node (14 nm vs 22 nm).

At the same time, Intel Pentium 3558U has a higher maximum integrated graphics clock (1 GHz vs 800 MHz).

Both processors match on: core count (2), thread count (2), TDP (15 W), maximum memory size (16 GB), memory channels (2), PCIe version (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.
