Core i5-6200U vs Celeron G3930 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-6200U performs better than the Celeron G3930. Despite this, the Celeron G3930 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i5-6200U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron G3930 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-6200U. A Core i5-6200U CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G3930 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. Indeed, the Core i5-6200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
