Intel Core i5-7300U vs Intel Celeron N5095A

Core i5-7300U vs Celeron N5095A benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron N5095A is faster than the Core i5-7300U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7300U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron N5095A has significantly more cores than the Core i5-7300U. Indeed, the Celeron N5095A has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i5-7300U. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-7300U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N5095A.

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. Indeed, the Core i5-7300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
