A6-7400K vs Celeron E3500 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A6-7400K is faster than the Celeron E3500. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron E3500 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the A6-7400K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron E3500. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the A6-7400K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
