AMD Athlon II X4 640 vs Intel N95

Athlon II X4 640 vs N95 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the N95 performs better than the Athlon II X4 640. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon II X4 640 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 significantly higher clock speed compared to the N95. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache

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 Athlon II X4 640 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
