Celeron N4020 vs Core i3-4005U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-4005U beats the Celeron N4020 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4020 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4005U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-4005U has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron N4020. A Celeron N4020 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-4005U 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.
