A4-9125 vs Core i3-2350M comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A4-9125 performs better than the Core i3-2350M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-2350M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-2350M has more threads. According to our data, the A4-9125 and Core i3-2350M have the same clock speed. A A4-9125 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-2350M 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 A4-9125 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
