Celeron J3455 vs Athlon II X2 220 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron J3455 is faster than the Athlon II X2 220. Despite this, the Athlon II X2 220 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Celeron J3455 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Athlon II X2 220 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Athlon II X2 220. Our comparison shows that the Athlon II X2 220 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron J3455.

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 J3455 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
