Intel Celeron N4020 vs Intel Core 2 Duo E7400

Celeron N4020 vs Core 2 Duo E7400 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Duo E7400 beats the Celeron N4020 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4020 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core 2 Duo E7400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N4020. A Celeron N4020 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E7400 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 N4020 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
