Celeron G3920 vs A8-5500B comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron G3920 beats the A8-5500B in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A8-5500B in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the A8-5500B has more threads. Our comparison shows that the A8-5500B has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron G3920. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the A8-5500B has significantly more L2 cache than the Celeron G3920

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 G3920 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
