A6-9500 vs A8-4500M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A8-4500M is faster than the A6-9500. Despite this, the A6-9500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the A8-4500M has more threads. The A8-4500M outputs less heat than A6-9500 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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 A6-9500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
