Celeron G1840 vs Core i5-4300M specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4300M is faster than the Celeron G1840. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron G1840 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-4300M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G1840 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4300M. The Core i5-4300M 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.
