Intel Core i3-2328M vs Intel Celeron G550

Core i3-2328M vs Celeron G550 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-2328M performs better than the Celeron G550. Despite this, the Celeron G550 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-2328M has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G550 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-2328M. A Core i3-2328M CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G550 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. Indeed, the Core i3-2328M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
