A8-6410 vs Pentium 3556U benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the A8-6410 beats the Pentium 3556U in overall performance. Despite this, the Pentium 3556U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the A8-6410 has significantly more cores than the Pentium 3556U. Indeed, the A8-6410 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Pentium 3556U. It also has more threads than the Pentium 3556U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A8-6410 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 3556U. 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.
The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the A8-6410 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
