Celeron N5105 vs Core i5-2400 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-2400 beats the Celeron N5105 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N5105 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-2400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5105. A Celeron N5105 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-2400 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 N5105 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
