Celeron G4920 vs Core i3-530 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-530 is faster than the Celeron G4920. Despite this, the Celeron G4920 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-530 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron G4920 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-530. A Celeron G4920 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-530 CPU because of its slightly 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 G4920 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
