Celeron 1037U vs Pentium 3556U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium 3556U is faster than the Celeron 1037U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron 1037U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron 1037U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 3556U. The Pentium 3556U outputs less heat than Celeron 1037U thanks to a slightly 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.
