Pentium 2020M vs A9-9425 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Pentium 2020M beats the A9-9425 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A9-9425 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A9-9425 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium 2020M.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Pentium 2020M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
