Celeron N4020 vs Core i7-4712MQ comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron N4020 beats the Core i7-4712MQ in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4712MQ in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-4712MQ has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Celeron N4020 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Celeron N4020. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4712MQ has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N4020. A Celeron N4020 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 N4020 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
