A6-3650 vs Core i3-4160 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-4160 performs better than the A6-3650. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-3650 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the A6-3650 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-4160 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. The Core i3-4160 outputs less heat than A6-3650 thanks to a significantly 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.
