A6-9500 vs Celeron J3455 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Celeron J3455 performs better than the A6-9500. Despite this, the A6-9500 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Celeron J3455 has significantly more cores than the A6-9500. Indeed, the Celeron J3455 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A6-9500. It also has more threads than the A6-9500. With our hardware info, we find that the A6-9500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron J3455. The Celeron J3455 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.
