Celeron G5905 vs Core i3-4340 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-4340 beats the Celeron G5905 in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron G5905 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4340 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-4340 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Celeron G5905. The Core i3-4340 outputs less heat than Celeron G5905 thanks to a 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 G5905 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
