Celeron 1037U vs Core i3-4020Y benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-4020Y beats the Celeron 1037U in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron 1037U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-4020Y has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron 1037U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4020Y. The Core i3-4020Y outputs less heat than Celeron 1037U 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 Celeron 1037U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
