A6-5357M vs A6-9225 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A6-9225 beats the A6-5357M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-5357M in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A6-5357M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the A6-9225. The A6-9225 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 data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches

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