A6-5200 vs Celeron E3500 comparison

In our benchmarks, the A6-5200 beats the Celeron E3500 in overall performance. Despite this, the Celeron E3500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the A6-5200 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Celeron E3500 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Celeron E3500. With our hardware info, we find that the Celeron E3500 has a slightly higher clock speed than the A6-5200. A A6-5200 CPU outputs less heat than a Celeron E3500 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the A6-5200 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Celeron E3500

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the A6-5200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
