A6-3650 vs Core 2 Quad Q6600 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A6-3650 is faster than the Core 2 Quad Q6600. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Quad Q6600 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. A A6-3650 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. 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 A6-3650 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
