Core i5-6440HQ vs Celeron N5105 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-6440HQ beats the Celeron N5105 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N5105 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-6440HQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5105. The Celeron N5105 outputs less heat than Core i5-6440HQ 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. For instance, the Core i5-6440HQ has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
