A6-5200 vs Core 2 Duo E6850 benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the A6-5200 beats the Core 2 Duo E6850 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core 2 Duo E6850 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the A6-5200 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core 2 Duo E6850 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core 2 Duo E6850. Our comparison shows that the Core 2 Duo E6850 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the A6-5200. A A6-5200 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E6850 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 Core 2 Duo E6850 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the A6-5200
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 A6-5200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
