Intel Core i5-2410M vs AMD A6-6400K

Core i5-2410M vs A6-6400K benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A6-6400K performs better than the Core i5-2410M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-2410M in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-2410M has significantly more cores with 2 cores compared to the A6-6400K that has 1 cores. It also has more threads than the A6-6400K. Our comparison shows that the A6-6400K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-2410M. Also, the A6-6400K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-2410M CPU outputs less heat than a A6-6400K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the A6-6400K has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-2410M

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i5-2410M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
