The Intel G3440 is a budget dual core Pentium processor. This particular model is largely identical to its predecessor the G3430. Comparing the G3440 and G3430 shows that the two processors are identical apart from the inclusion of clear video HD technology (CVHDT) on the newer G3440. CVHDT can potentially offload processing onto dedicated hardware within the GPU during graphically intensive tasks such as HD video playback or image editing. In terms of performance, thanks to its superb single and dual core capabilities the G3440 scored an effective speed of 85.4. This is a seriously impressive result for a budget processor. In terms of single core speed the G3440 is 20% faster than an i7-950. [Jul '14 CPUPro]

The Intel Pentium G3460 is a dual-core, twin threaded processor. It was released in Q3 2014 and with a base frequency of 3.5 GHz it scores a decent 91 for effective speed. The G3460 is fast enough to run most applications without any problems and it’s very reasonably priced for its performance which make it a sensible choice even when considering building a gaming PC. The integrated HD Graphics are fine for general desktop use but not for 3D gaming. Comparing the G3460 and i3-4160 shows that although the i3-4160 has hyper-threading which allows it to run four rather than just two threads simultaneously, the G3460 and 4160 are very evenly matched in terms of effective speed and the G3460 is 30% cheaper. Overall the G3460 offers superb value for money and it's bested only by the unlocked G3258[Nov '14 CPUPro]
