Intel Core i5-6600T vs AMD Phenom II X6 1100T

Core i5-6600T vs Phenom II X6 1100T comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6600T is faster than the Phenom II X6 1100T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Phenom II X6 1100T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Phenom II X6 1100T has significantly more cores than the Core i5-6600T. Indeed, the Phenom II X6 1100T has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-6600T. It also has more threads than the Core i5-6600T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Phenom II X6 1100T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6600T.

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 i5-6600T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
