Athlon II X4 640 vs Core 2 Quad Q9505 comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Athlon II X4 640 is faster than the Core 2 Quad Q9505. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core 2 Quad Q9505 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. Our comparison shows that the Athlon II X4 640 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core 2 Quad Q9505. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core 2 Quad Q9505 has significantly more L2 cache than the Athlon II X4 640
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 Athlon II X4 640 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
