It also has more threads than the Athlon II X3 445. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Athlon II X3 445 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5095A. In terms of cache, the Celeron N5095A has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Athlon II X3 445

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Athlon II X3 445 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
