Intel Core i5-6300U vs Intel Celeron N3350

Core i5-6300U vs Celeron N3350 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6300U is faster than the Celeron N3350. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N3350 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-6300U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-6300U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N3350. The Celeron N3350 outputs less heat than Core i5-6300U thanks to a 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 i5-6300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
