A9-9420 vs Core 2 Duo E8200 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core 2 Duo E8200 performs better than the A9-9420. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A9-9420 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A9-9420 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core 2 Duo E8200. A A9-9420 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8200 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Core 2 Duo E8200 has more L2 cache than the A9-9420
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 A9-9420 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
