Intel Core i3-4010U vs Intel Celeron G550

Core i3-4010U vs Celeron G550 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron G550 is faster than the Core i3-4010U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-4010U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-4010U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G550 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4010U. A Core i3-4010U 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 i3-4010U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
