Celeron J4125 vs Core i5-12500H comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-12500H is faster than the Celeron J4125. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron J4125 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-12500H has significantly more cores with 12 cores whereas the Celeron J4125 has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Celeron J4125. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-12500H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Celeron J4125. A Celeron J4125 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-12500H 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 J4125 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
