A8-5545M vs Pentium 4417U specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium 4417U performs better than the A8-5545M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A8-5545M in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the A8-5545M has significantly more cores than the Pentium 4417U. Indeed, the A8-5545M has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium 4417U. But they both have the same number of threads. The Pentium 4417U outputs less heat than A8-5545M thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the A8-5545M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
