Core i5-8279U vs Celeron N5095 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-8279U performs better than the Celeron N5095. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N5095 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-8279U has more threads. The Celeron N5095 outputs less heat than Core i5-8279U thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i5-8279U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
