Phenom II X4 960T vs N150 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the N150 is faster than the Phenom II X4 960T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Phenom II X4 960T 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 Phenom II X4 960T has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N150. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Phenom II X4 960T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
