Intel Core i5-5200U vs Intel Celeron G1840

Core i5-5200U vs Celeron G1840 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-5200U performs better 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 i5-5200U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G1840 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-5200U. A Core i5-5200U 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. In terms of cache, the Celeron G1840 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-5200U. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 i5-5200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
