Core i5-6400T vs Athlon II X4 651 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Athlon II X4 651 is faster than the Core i5-6400T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-6400T in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Athlon II X4 651 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.
