FX-4100 vs Athlon X4 750K comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Athlon X4 750K is faster than the FX-4100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-4100 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the FX-4100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Athlon X4 750K. In terms of cache, the Athlon X4 750K has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the FX-4100

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 FX-4100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
