Celeron G1840 vs Core i3-4030U specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Celeron G1840 beats the Core i3-4030U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4030U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4030U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G1840 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4030U. The Core i3-4030U outputs less heat than Celeron G1840 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 G1840 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
