Pentium 2020M vs Celeron G550 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Celeron G550 beats the Pentium 2020M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium 2020M in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron G550 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Pentium 2020M. A Pentium 2020M CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron G550 CPU because of its 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. For instance, the Pentium 2020M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
