Celeron G3930 vs Core i3-4005U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron G3930 beats the Core i3-4005U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4005U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4005U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron G3930 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4005U. The Core i3-4005U outputs less heat than Celeron G3930 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 G3930 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
