AMD Ryzen 3 1200 vs AMD A6-6400K

Ryzen 3 1200 vs A6-6400K comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 3 1200 is faster than the A6-6400K. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-6400K in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 3 1200 has significantly more cores than the A6-6400K. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 1200 has 4 cores compared to 1 cores found in the A6-6400K. It also has more threads than the A6-6400K. With our hardware info, we find that the A6-6400K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 1200. Also, the A6-6400K has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 1200 has significantly more L2 cache than the A6-6400K

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 Ryzen 3 1200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
