Core i5 M 430 vs Celeron E3500 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5 M 430 is faster than the Celeron E3500. Despite this, the Celeron E3500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5 M 430 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Celeron E3500 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5 M 430. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Celeron E3500 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5 M 430

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 M 430 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
