A8-4500M vs Core i3-2350M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A8-4500M is faster than the Core i3-2350M. Despite this, the Core i3-2350M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. 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. Indeed, the A8-4500M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
