Core i5-4590T vs Celeron G6900 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron G6900 is faster than the Core i5-4590T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4590T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-4590T has significantly more cores than the Celeron G6900. Indeed, the Core i5-4590T has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Celeron G6900. It also has more threads than the Celeron G6900. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G6900 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4590T. A Core i5-4590T CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G6900 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Celeron G6900 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-4590T. Despite this, the Core i5-4590T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Celeron G6900.

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 i5-4590T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
