A6-3670 vs A8-9600 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A8-9600 performs better than the A6-3670. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-3670 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. The A8-9600 outputs less heat than A6-3670 thanks to a significantly 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 A6-3670 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
