The Pentium G3258 is a Haswell 2c/2t CPU with an unlocked multiplier at a stock clockrate of 3.2GHz.
The Pentium G4560 is a Kabylake 2c/4t CPU with a locked multiplier at a stock clockrate of 3.5GHz.
At stock the G4560 is clearly better, but the G3258 has an unlocked multiplier that can be overclocked even without a z-series board (unlike, say, the i3-7350k which does require a z-series board).
Yeah, I know that. As I said, it's the potential for Overclocking that the G3258 has as an advantage in.
