A12-9720P vs Core i5-4288U specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A12-9720P performs better than the Core i5-4288U. Despite this, the Core i5-4288U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the A12-9720P has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i5-4288U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. A A12-9720P CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4288U CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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. For instance, the A12-9720P has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
