A6-9220 vs Pentium E5200 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A6-9220 beats the Pentium E5200 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium E5200 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. In terms of clock speed, the A6-9220 and Pentium E5200 are identical in this regard. A A6-9220 CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium E5200 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Pentium E5200 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the A6-9220

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 A6-9220 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
