A6-7310 vs A9-9420 comparison
In our benchmarks, the A6-7310 beats the A9-9420 in overall performance. Despite this, the A9-9420 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the A6-7310 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the A9-9420 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the A9-9420. With our hardware info, we find that the A9-9420 has a significantly higher clock speed than the A6-7310. Also, the A9-9420 has a significantly higher turbo speed. The A9-9420 outputs less heat than A6-7310 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 A6-7310 has significantly more L2 cache than the A9-9420
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.
