A6-3650 vs Core i5-2400 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-2400 beats the A6-3650 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-3650 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. The Core i5-2400 outputs less heat than A6-3650 thanks to a 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 A6-3650 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
