Core i7-6700T vs A4-9125 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-6700T is faster than the A4-9125. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A4-9125 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-6700T has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the A4-9125 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the A4-9125. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-6700T has a slightly higher clock speed than the A4-9125. Also, the Core i7-6700T has a slightly higher turbo speed. The A4-9125 outputs less heat than Core i7-6700T thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches

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. Indeed, the Core i7-6700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
