Celeron N4000 vs Ryzen 9 7950X comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 9 7950X beats the Celeron N4000 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4000 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 9 7950X has significantly more cores than the Celeron N4000. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 7950X has 16 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Celeron N4000. It also has more threads than the Celeron N4000. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 9 7950X has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron N4000. A Celeron N4000 CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 9 7950X 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 N4000 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
