Intel Celeron N4120 vs Intel Celeron N4500

Celeron N4120 vs Celeron N4500 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Celeron N4120 performs better than the Celeron N4500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4500 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron N4120 has significantly more cores than the Celeron N4500. Indeed, the Celeron N4120 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Celeron N4500. It also has more threads than the Celeron N4500. In terms of clock speed, the Celeron N4120 and Celeron N4500 are identical in this regard. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 N4120 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
