A6-9500 vs Pentium 3825U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A6-9500 is faster than the Pentium 3825U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Pentium 3825U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Pentium 3825U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the A6-9500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Pentium 3825U. The Pentium 3825U 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. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the A6-9500 has significantly more L2 cache than the Pentium 3825U

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.
