A6-7400K vs Celeron N4020 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A6-7400K performs better than the Celeron N4020. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4020 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A6-7400K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N4020. The Celeron N4020 outputs less heat than A6-7400K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the A6-7400K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
