Intel Core i7-3537U vs Intel Celeron J4125

Core i7-3537U vs Celeron J4125 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Celeron J4125 performs better than the Core i7-3537U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3537U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Celeron J4125 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i7-3537U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-3537U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Celeron J4125. The Celeron J4125 outputs less heat than Core i7-3537U 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 i7-3537U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
