A4-9125 vs Core m3-6Y30 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core m3-6Y30 is faster than the A4-9125. Despite this, the A4-9125 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core m3-6Y30 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the A4-9125 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core m3-6Y30. The Core m3-6Y30 outputs less heat than A4-9125 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the A4-9125 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core m3-6Y30

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 A4-9125 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
