A6-6400K vs Celeron J3455 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A6-6400K is faster than the Celeron J3455. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron J3455 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Celeron J3455 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the A6-6400K that has 1 cores. It also has more threads than the A6-6400K. With our hardware info, we find that the A6-6400K has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron J3455. The Celeron J3455 outputs less heat than A6-6400K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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. Indeed, the A6-6400K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
