Core i5-7400 vs Phenom II X6 1090T specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Phenom II X6 1090T performs better than the Core i5-7400. Despite this, the Core i5-7400 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Phenom II X6 1090T has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i5-7400 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Phenom II X6 1090T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7400. The info from our database shows that the Phenom II X6 1090T has more L2 cache than the Core i5-7400. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.
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 i5-7400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
