Celeron N5105 vs Core i7-2860QM specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-2860QM beats the Celeron N5105 in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron N5105 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-2860QM has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-2860QM has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5105. A Celeron N5105 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-2860QM 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.
