Intel Celeron J4125 vs Intel Core i5-650

Celeron J4125 vs Core i5-650 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Celeron J4125 beats the Core i5-650 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-650 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron J4125 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-650. Indeed, the Celeron J4125 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-650. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-650 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron J4125. A Celeron J4125 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-650 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.
