Celeron N5095 vs Core i5-2500 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron N5095 is faster than the Core i5-2500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-2500 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. A Celeron N5095 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-2500 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 N5095 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
