Intel Core i5-6400T vs AMD Athlon II X4 635

Core i5-6400T vs Athlon II X4 635 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-6400T beats the Athlon II X4 635 in overall performance. Despite this, the Athlon II X4 635 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Athlon II X4 635 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6400T.

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