Intel Celeron J6412 vs AMD Athlon Silver 7120U

Celeron J6412 vs Athlon Silver 7120U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron J6412 is faster than the Athlon Silver 7120U. Despite this, the Athlon Silver 7120U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron J6412 has significantly more cores than the Athlon Silver 7120U. Indeed, the Celeron J6412 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Athlon Silver 7120U. It also has more threads than the Athlon Silver 7120U. With our hardware info, we find that the Athlon Silver 7120U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Celeron J6412. A Celeron J6412 CPU outputs less heat than a Athlon Silver 7120U CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Celeron J6412 has significantly more L2 cache than the Athlon Silver 7120U. The Celeron J6412 also has significantly more L3 cache.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Celeron J6412 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
