Core 2 Duo E8200 vs Celeron E3500 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Celeron E3500 beats the Core 2 Duo E8200 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Duo E8200 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron E3500 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core 2 Duo E8200. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has significantly more L2 cache than the Celeron E3500

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 Core 2 Duo E8200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
