A12-9720P vs Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE beats the A12-9720P in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A12-9720P in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE has more threads. A A12-9720P CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE 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 A12-9720P has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
