Intel Celeron N5095 vs AMD Athlon X4 870K

Celeron N5095 vs Athlon X4 870K comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron N5095 beats the Athlon X4 870K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon X4 870K in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron N5095 has significantly more cores than the Athlon X4 870K. Indeed, the Celeron N5095 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Athlon X4 870K. But they both have the same number of threads. A Celeron N5095 CPU outputs less heat than a Athlon X4 870K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Celeron N5095 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
