Celeron G1840 vs Core i5-4210U benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-4210U beats the Celeron G1840 in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron G1840 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-4210U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron G1840 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4210U. The Core i5-4210U 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.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Celeron G1840 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
