Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 vs Intel Celeron J6412

Core 2 Quad Q9550 vs Celeron J6412 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core 2 Quad Q9550 beats the Celeron J6412 in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron J6412 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 Core 2 Quad Q9550 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Celeron J6412. The Celeron J6412 outputs less heat than Core 2 Quad Q9550 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core 2 Quad Q9550 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Celeron J6412

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 Quad Q9550 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
