A4-5300 vs Core 2 Duo E6850 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core 2 Duo E6850 is faster than the A4-5300. Despite this, the A4-5300 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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. For instance, the A4-5300 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
