Celeron 6305 vs Core i3-3217U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-3217U is faster than the Celeron 6305. Despite this, the Celeron 6305 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i3-3217U has more threads.

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 6305 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
