Celeron N3450 vs Core 2 Duo T6400 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron N3450 is faster than the Core 2 Duo T6400. Despite this, the Core 2 Duo T6400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Celeron N3450 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core 2 Duo T6400 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core 2 Duo T6400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo T6400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N3450. A Celeron N3450 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo T6400 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 N3450 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
