A6-5357M vs A6-6310 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A6-6310 is faster than the A6-5357M. Despite this, the A6-5357M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the A6-6310 has significantly more cores than the A6-5357M. Indeed, the A6-6310 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A6-5357M. It also has more threads than the A6-5357M. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A6-5357M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the A6-6310. The A6-6310 outputs less heat than A6-5357M thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the A6-6310 has significantly more L2 cache than the A6-5357M

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 A6-5357M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
