Core i5-4460T vs Athlon 64 X2 4000+ comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Athlon 64 X2 4000+ performs better than the Core i5-4460T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-4460T has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Athlon 64 X2 4000+ has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Athlon 64 X2 4000+. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Athlon 64 X2 4000+ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4460T.

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 Core i5-4460T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
