Athlon X4 950 vs Core i3-6098P specs and performance
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-6098P is faster than the Athlon X4 950. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon X4 950 in all gaming tests too.
With info from our database, we find that the Athlon X4 950 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-6098P has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-6098P has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Athlon X4 950. The Core i3-6098P outputs less heat than Athlon X4 950 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Athlon X4 950 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-6098P
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 X4 950 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
