A10-4655M vs Pentium B940 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium B940 performs better than the A10-4655M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-4655M in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the A10-4655M has more threads. A A10-4655M CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium B940 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the A10-4655M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
