A6-7310 vs A8-5545M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A8-5545M beats the A6-7310 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-7310 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. The A8-5545M outputs less heat than A6-7310 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 A6-7310 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
