Celeron 6305 vs Core i7-3517U specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Celeron 6305 performs better than the Core i7-3517U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3517U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-3517U has more threads.

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