Core i5-8350U vs Celeron N4100 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-8350U is faster than the Celeron N4100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4100 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i5-8350U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-8350U has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron N4100. The Celeron N4100 outputs less heat than Core i5-8350U 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. Indeed, the Core i5-8350U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
