A6-3620 vs Core i5-3330 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-3330 beats the A6-3620 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-3620 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. A A6-3620 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-3330 CPU because of its slightly 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 A6-3620 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
