A4-3400 vs A6-3500 performance comparison
The charts illustrate relative performance of A4-3400 and A6-3500 processors in a number of different kinds of tasks. The numbers for 'Single-threaded performance', 'Multi-threaded performance' and 'Integrated Graphics performance' charts are calculated as an average of several related benchmarks, that you can view in the "Benchmarks" tab. As a result, performance in individual benchmarks may be lower or higher than what you see in the charts here. We also averaged the results for task type specific benchmarks and all-around performance benchmarks, and presented them in the 'Overall performance' chart. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Benchmarks
System setup
Below is a partial set of AMD A4-3400 and A6-3500 benchmarks from our CPU benchmark database. Both microprocessors were tested on ASUS F1A75-V Pro motherboard with 4GB dual-channel Crucial BallistixPC3-14900 (DDR3-1866) memory, and Integrated on-chip ATI Radeon 6000-series graphics. For different system configurations please see tests of A4-3400 and A6-3500 CPUs in our benchmark database.
All tests were performed at default frequency and voltage, using manufacturer's stock fan/heatsink. None of the components were overclocked. Motherboard BIOS options were left at default settings.
The results of all benchmarks are broken into four categories: multi-threaded, single-threaded, memory intensive and graphics / gaming.
A4-3400 vs A6-3500 single-threaded benchmarks
Single-threaded benchmarks run on a single CPU core, and do not depend on such features as the number of cores, or Hyper-Threading technology. Additionally, they do not utilize on-chip caches, dedicated to other cores.

A4-3400 vs A6-3500 graphics benchmarks
Graphics benchmarks depend on the type of integrated or discrete graphics adapter, and to less extent on the processor performance. Because these benchmarks are synthetic, they may not truly represent gaming performance. However, they still can used to estimate whether one processor will perform faster or slower in games than another CPU.

A4-3400 vs A6-3500 memory performance
Memory-intensive tests or programs move large amounts of data to/from memory, and they depend more on memory throughput and the size of on-chip caches, rather than on CPU integer/FP/SIMD performance.
