Celeron N5095 vs Core i5-2500K specs and performance

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