Intel Core i5-7400T vs Intel Celeron G6900

Core i5-7400T vs Celeron G6900 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Celeron G6900 is faster than the Core i5-7400T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7400T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-7400T has significantly more cores than the Celeron G6900. Indeed, the Core i5-7400T has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Celeron G6900. It also has more threads than the Celeron G6900. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron G6900 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7400T. A Core i5-7400T CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G6900 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Celeron G6900 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7400T. Despite this, the Core i5-7400T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Celeron G6900.

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 i5-7400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
