A8-5550M vs Celeron N3450 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A8-5550M performs better than the Celeron N3450. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N3450 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A8-5550M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N3450. The Celeron N3450 outputs less heat than A8-5550M thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the A8-5550M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
