Celeron N3450 vs Core i7-4712MQ comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Celeron N3450 performs better than the Core i7-4712MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4712MQ in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-4712MQ has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4712MQ has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N3450. A Celeron N3450 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4712MQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 N3450 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
