Intel Celeron N5095 vs AMD Athlon X4 860K

Celeron N5095 vs Athlon X4 860K comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Athlon X4 860K is faster than the Celeron N5095. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N5095 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Celeron N5095 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Athlon X4 860K has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. A Celeron N5095 CPU outputs less heat than a Athlon X4 860K 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 N5095 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
