A6-5350M vs Core i3-2328M specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-2328M beats the A6-5350M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-5350M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-2328M has more threads. Our comparison shows that the A6-5350M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-2328M. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 A6-5350M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
