Intel Core i3-7130U vs Intel Celeron G1840

Core i3-7130U vs Celeron G1840 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-7130U is faster than the Celeron G1840. Despite this, the Celeron G1840 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i3-7130U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Celeron G1840 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-7130U. A Core i3-7130U CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G1840 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i3-7130U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
