Intel Core i7-6600U vs Intel Celeron 6305

Core i7-6600U vs Celeron 6305 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-6600U beats the Celeron 6305 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron 6305 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-6600U has more threads.

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 i7-6600U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
