A8-5545M vs Celeron N4120 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron N4120 is faster than the A8-5545M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A8-5545M 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. The Celeron N4120 outputs less heat than A8-5545M 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 A8-5545M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
