Celeron J4005 vs Pentium 3556U specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium 3556U performs better than the Celeron J4005. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron J4005 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron J4005 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 3556U. A Celeron J4005 CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium 3556U 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 J4005 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
