Celeron J3455 vs Core i3-3227U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron J3455 is faster than the Core i3-3227U. Despite this, the Core i3-3227U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Celeron J3455 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-3227U has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-3227U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron J3455. A Celeron J3455 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-3227U CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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