Phenom II X4 965 vs N150 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Phenom II X4 965 is faster than the N150. Despite this, the N150 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Phenom II X4 965 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the N150. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Phenom II X4 965 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
