Core i7-3537U vs A6-6400K benchmarks
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-3537U is faster than the A6-6400K. Despite this, the A6-6400K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-3537U has significantly more cores with 2 cores compared to the A6-6400K that has 1 cores. It also has more threads than the A6-6400K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A6-6400K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-3537U. Also, the A6-6400K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-3537U CPU outputs less heat than a A6-6400K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the A6-6400K has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-3537U
Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i7-3537U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
