A6-9225 vs Core i3-4010U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-4010U is faster than the A6-9225. Despite this, the A6-9225 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-4010U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A6-9225 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-4010U. 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.

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 A6-9225 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
