Intel Core i5-7200U vs Intel Celeron N4100

Core i5-7200U vs Celeron N4100 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-7200U beats the Celeron N4100 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4100 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron N4100 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-7200U. Indeed, the Celeron N4100 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-7200U. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-7200U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N4100. The Celeron N4100 outputs less heat than Core i5-7200U 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 i5-7200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
