Core i5-10400 vs Celeron N5105 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-10400 is faster than the Celeron N5105. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N5105 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-10400 has significantly more cores than the Celeron N5105. Indeed, the Core i5-10400 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Celeron N5105. It also has more threads than the Celeron N5105. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-10400 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5105. The Celeron N5105 outputs less heat than Core i5-10400 thanks to a 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 i5-10400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
