Core i3-4370 vs Athlon X4 950 specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Athlon X4 950 beats the Core i3-4370 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i3-4370 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
With info from our database, we find that the Athlon X4 950 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i3-4370 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-4370 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Athlon X4 950. A Core i3-4370 CPU outputs less heat than a Athlon X4 950 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. 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. Indeed, the Core i3-4370 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
