Core i5-6400T vs A10-6700 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6400T is faster than the A10-6700. Despite this, the A10-6700 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the A10-6700 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6400T. Also, the A10-6700 has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-6400T CPU outputs less heat than a A10-6700 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Core i5-6400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
