FX-4130 vs Core i5-4288U benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the FX-4130 beats the Core i5-4288U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4288U in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the FX-4130 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-4288U. The Core i5-4288U outputs less heat than FX-4130 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 FX-4130 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
