A6-9500 vs Celeron N4020 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the A6-9500 beats the Celeron N4020 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4020 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the A6-9500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Celeron N4020. The Celeron N4020 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.
