Celeron J4125 vs Core i5-4200U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron J4125 beats the Core i5-4200U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4200U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Celeron J4125 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i5-4200U has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron J4125 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-4200U. A Celeron J4125 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4200U CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Celeron J4125 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
